Kevin Donoghue, a medic with the 57th Med Det RVN and a dear friend, passed away today. Kevin and I flew many missions together and he was the one that always kept my butt out of the sling. I talked to his wife Carol today and Kevin faced his death with the same courage he displayed as a DUSTOFF medic. All of us who were blessed to have Kevin touch our lives are better for that experience. I will miss my friend, but I believe he is now with all of our fallen comrades in a better place. JT Travers
