I just want to say it's an honor to have. you here I know it takes a lot of. courage to come out and talk about what. you're talking about after so long and. um. we're here to get your testimony of what.
you saw out to the public. what are your goals. it's an honor to be here first of all I. have we spoke earlier downstairs you. know it can't. be pushed further I mean it's you have. to give yourself more credit because I. wouldn't be alive I wouldn't be sitting. in this chair if it wasn't for you. if it wasn't for the people that you've. had on before now when I had no strength. left I just happened to come across it. and uh.
yeah. my reason I'm here just as much so. my guys reflect your goals. I'm glad you are here and uh I'm glad. the show helped you it's helped a lot of. people and and I said it before I'll say. it again you know one of the main things. we do here is we want to bring hope. especially the Vets you know overcoming. all the trauma that has gone on for the. past 20 years. and it will come again you know in. document history tell truth.
expose corruption and again bring help. in Europe a perfect example of that hope. so thank you for saying that I. appreciate it. but now before we get too sentimental. here I want to give you a uh. introduction so DC long you're in the. New York uh excuse me DC long you're in. the U.S Army Fort Bragg North Carolina. 1997 to 2013 was your service medically. retired from injuries received from a.
combat jump your father was a government. contractor also at Fort Bragg and you. had a. encounter with a what we call monolithic. slab hovering off the ground at range 19. at a secret underground bunker and so. we're here to document that testimony. um before we get started. everybody gets a gift. even you.
and uh here you go. thank you. the only thing I brought you was me. that's all right that's more than enough. you're what it's all about thank you so. much man that means a lot you're welcome. you're welcome so those are vigilance. League gummy bears. is it legal they are legal in all 50. states we actually got an email once. and somebody sent me a somebody sent us. an email and they said man I'm on my. third bag and I still don't feel.
anything. I was like I was like dude you're not. supposed to feel anything they just. taste good but uh that's awesome yeah. but um so. we're here to get your eyewitness. account on what happened. on that day when was that when did this. happen. that happened in 2011. at the end of 2010 began in 2011 when I. was still in Fort Benning Georgia were. you still active yes.
I was. um and incidentally it had nothing to do. with my military career anything that I. did. in service had absolutely nothing to do. with it in the sense that uh as you said. my father was a government contractor. and. um. on occasion I had a 30 stake in the. business so he would ask me to help him. out whenever I could so I took leave I. came back down to Carolina to help him.
out. uh that day the day in question he was. in the 18th Airborne headquarters G5 War. Room uh what he was doing there I didn't. ask he didn't tell me but that's where I. met him. uh he told me that we were going to get. an escort from JFK Warfare to take us. over to a place called range 19. uh. is it thundering outside it is okay yes. I didn't know if you'd set me up.
but um where was I apologize you got. selected to go to Range 19. yes sir yes. they called us uh he called me up said. that we had an escort coming from uh JFK. Warfare to meet us and take us to a. place called range 19. just real quick. what was your dad's business as a. contractor. it was TurnKey uh originally it started. out doing residential and commercial. construction from the monolithic slab to.
TurnKey everything was subcontracted in. the house. so it's whatever you needed. as long as you had plans it was. construction right that was that was the. main purview why do you think you guys. got selected to do this. well. as long as my dad was there he's always. had hunting land in North Carolina. and a lot of the guys from group that he. met there would come down to his land go.
hunting with him a couple of the Delta. cats that he knew take us on their. planes would go down to Arkansas and do. some duck hunting it's all over the U.S. uh Montana. Colorado Mesa elk hunts bear hunts yeah. it's just the guys who were into it. that's how they got tied in and he did. submit everything that he did through. the Army Corps of Engineers that's where. he would submit all of his bid. submittals for the contracts you know.
like the Force com building that they. built on Fort Bragg he was responsible. for the top three levels of it and um. but. as far as. how he got tied in to do the work around. McKellar's Lodge. during the fs excuse me SF compounds I. have no idea. and we didn't talk about that in that. sense so yeah I just assumed it was the. guys that he hadn't met and I needed.
where it needed to go say again they got. the bids into where it needed to go. right okay and it's not like it was a. public bid. you know not everyone could yeah because. I imagine there were things that they. weren't supposed to see and we just. weren't naturally curious people. so it's not like they had to worry about. us saying anything yeah. um. the day that. I met him up there. like I said the escort comes to meet us.
um it's one of the guys that he knew. that he had hunted with I didn't know. this gentleman. um but they pick us up in a van we get. in the back of it they take us out about. 15 minutes so I could tell it was going. towards the direction. um I don't know if you're familiar with. Fort Bragg I'm not okay that's there's. only one direction you can go to get to. the live fire ranges to get to the Drop.
Zones and things like that so I assume. we were headed towards Sicily or. Normandy Drop Zone because that was the. direction we were going. um the van that they had us in it didn't. have. any Windows you couldn't see to the. front it was just the cattle car. and we were joking they were going to. take us away ask him what he did and. we're going to head to Leavenworth for a. little while. but uh we get there. and as soon as the door opened it looked. like a literal dump.
there was just trash everywhere not like. people just leaving stuff out it was an. actual dump that was a 45 degree. concrete door. setting out of one of these Hills that. was directly in front of us no further. than you and I are to each other now. and uh. so we go inside. made another escort in there take us to. this freight elevator we get in there's. two series of buttons didn't have any. writing on it.
um. one of the guys looks at my dad has. saying to both of us you know keep your. head down your eyes on the hills and man. in front of you or you'll be shot and we. kind of started giggling because. you know at least I knew one of the guys. was one of his buddies yeah people that. he used to hang out with and the other. guy I recognized him as the guy who we. went hunting with before. um I knew later on that they were both. Delta operators.
um. if they were still active I have no clue. do you know their names I do do you want. to no say there absolutely not okay and. I'll I'll tell you later why. but yeah hell no. so you're seeing familiar you're seeing. familiar faces which makes you. comfortable right and you don't realize. how. the [ __ ] storm I just stepped into yeah. absolutely not what what exactly were.
you guys there to do. what he told me was that we were going. down below ground to set up a shoot. house uh okay an indoor live fire range. that was going to be underground nothing. new again yeah I didn't think anything. of it we had done other shoot houses. before with the open tops that can be. viewed from above with a catwalk yeah it. so it just it didn't didn't even phase. you it was just another day at work okay.
I was just there to help him out but we. get down the doors open and the first. thing I see is these personal contacts. is off to my right the the smaller ones. not the. the larger ones uh that you see. scattered around or like the ones you'd. see on a big rig carrying around these. were the small ones you would throw your. personal gear in to go before you get. shipped overseas. and uh. as soon as I I looked past them I could.
see this giant monolithic slab just. sitting there at first it didn't yeah. once again it didn't. set off any alarms I didn't think much. of it but the closer we got to it I. could feel this intense vibration that. but you couldn't hear anything it was. dead silent in there the the loudest. thing was the the footsteps that I could. hear and uh what what did the vibration.
feel like it felt like being at a. concert standing next to one of the. speakers. permeating through your body without the. noise there was Zero noise zero. vibration absolute zero I could still. hear myself breathing over this but. inside I have such a strange. feeling to have so the closer I got and. I said well I gotta check this out so I. go down to one knee you know they're. faking I got to tie my boots and then I. glance up underneath it and there's.
absolutely nothing underneath this damn. thing nothing holding it up whatsoever. what did the slab look like it just. looked like a granite slab but the sheen. on it is is what caught my attention the. most it was kind of in between being. polished or just completely translucent. there was something behind it but you. could tell I had a smooth surface to us. and the only lights that were on in that. Hangar that we were in were directly.
over our head where we were walking. through that walkway. and how big was the slab oh God it was. about 20 foot long. it was about seven foot tall and I. couldn't tell how wide it was by that. point I was already directly in front of. it so there's like. absolutely it would be impossible for a. human to even think about picking. something like this up no there's no way. okay even with the construction that. we've done if you had to pick up. something like that to move it anywhere.
you would need at least three four. cranes oh wow Herrera can tell you. better okay now the the scope of. equipment that it would take just to get. it off the ground uh not even to. transport it to a another location. but uh at this point I'm still down on. my knee and I'm looking and behind it I. can see two people standing only thing I. see is their feet because there's. there's this Boulder they're right in.
the behind it and it's on the ground and. I glance over my shoulder and there's a. guy with this back turn to me standing. in front of another Boulder identical of. the other one that I could see up. underneath the monolithic slab and he's. just pushing it with one hand and then I. assume he's pushing in the other. direction because it's just freely. spinning no wobble it's like it was. attached to the top and the bottom and. it was paper mache that's how easily. this guy was just spinning it around at. this point. um the escort behind me kicks me in the.
back says let's go so we get up keep. going go down a flight of stairs that's. when we get to what we call the shoot. house. um you could see old Lanes where they. had actually used it before as a live. fire range Underground. and um. we'd probably only been down there 15. minutes 15-20 minutes maybe father's. taking notes on the dimensions what we. needed what I guess he understood what. they wanted. and I know that we had to replace the.
walls as inconsequential to the story. but we had to replace the rubber on the. walls for the shootouts. and in that amount of time we go back. upstairs the exact same route that we. took on the way down and everything's. empty when we get to the hangar again. everything the two Boulders in the back. the monolithic slab all of it is. absolutely gone. and it was we weren't you know. 100 yards below these guys we were just.
one flight below them so whatever it was. they were taking out we would have heard. it. even the the people making noise around. it you would have still been able to. hear but it was dead silent like I said. before there was nothing in there. just our feet but coming back through it. was absolutely gone. everything in there just vacated. and at that point how much time had. passed. less than 30 minutes.
less than 30 minutes because it didn't. take us long to do what we had to do. downstairs. and. and this was just an assessment you guys. weren't actually you weren't any you. weren't doing any construction or. repairing the ones it was what we need. to do so there was no equipment that you. were operating that would have that. would have muffled any sound that was. going on above the right taking. measurements layouts the loudest thing. was the you know the tape measure we.
were using. now uh that a roll tape and a notebook. that was it. that was the only thing that um. that was the only thing we had down. there. I don't know if I've ever been this. excited to represent a brand I'm talking. about first form I just align so well. with what they've got first form is a. supplement company they have just about. every supplement you can possibly.

doors of the freight elevator open and I. looked in I could see it okay yeah I. mean it was no farther than you know. from here to that camera pod and he's. six seven feet away from me whenever. we're walking in but what made me stop. it was that close right and what made me. stop was as close as we got I noticed. that in front of me with my dad and the. other escort in front of him it was. almost like. hop on a tripwire you know when you're. on the trail you just hit it and go that.
was the first thing I noticed and then. the closer I got to it that intense. vibration and I was just too curious. yeah I I couldn't stand it I had to. figure out what it was. and um. I really shouldn't have when did the. vibration stop. it didn't stop until I walked away okay. in the center at looking at the top of. it you could see this black box. um I've tried to describe it before and. it was extremely difficult it just. looked like a small black gmtk toolbox.
that a military mechanic would have or. carry around it wasn't very big and it. just had two leads that came off of it. and it looked like. it was wrapped in a case and that you. could almost see something inside of it. but it wasn't mechanical it wasn't. moving they didn't have lights it was. just opaque. but it didn't really seem to serve any. purpose but that the other Boulder had. the same thing on top of it.
but so hold on I'm sorry are you saying. you saw two Boulders and a slab yeah and. they were in all three of them at the. same time the the slab itself the. monolithic slab it was about 12 to 15. inches off the ground okay and whenever. I knelt down to the time I tie my shoes. I could look through it and I saw the. first Boulder that I noticed and it was. just sitting on the ground okay and then. I'll glance back and then that's when I. saw the other Boulder that had the same.
Black Box on top that was being moved. around and that was that was levitating. yes. levitating one Boulder on the ground. correct okay. did the did the slab have a black box. anywhere near it the monolithic sled. yeah it did it did where was that. located it was on the top near the. center where I was feeling most of the. vibration. it was like the closer I got to it.
that's where it was the most intense at. the at the center of the slab where that. box was on top of it okay. keep going. and after that. um we go back upstairs the way we came. like I said. we get out of the door. to leave fans still in the same place we. hop back in we take that same 15 minute. drive back to uh 18th Airborne.
headquarters. uh they gave us our phone back. and I got my ID. and then my dad said something to one of. the other guys that I'd recognized that. he knew that I didn't I didn't know his. name but uh. that guy took everything that my dad had. you know minus his phones he took the. notes he took the tapes everything. uh from him there and and uh.
I didn't think much of it at that point. I didn't know if that was something he. was going to submit to the Army Corps of. engineer rep that he had whoever was. going to coordinate you know or give him. the go-ahead to submit a bid to do this. project yeah so to me again that didn't. set off any bells. um. we're getting ready to leave as I said. let me back that up before we go and get.
our phones and our identifications uh. the second guy that I recognized the one. that I do know he was upstairs in the G5. war room in the 18th hhc and it's just. him sitting at the desk as soon as you. go into the Vault and he's got two. pieces of paper and he's like I need you. to sign this and it was Anonymous an NDA. and I was like [ __ ] that I'm not gonna. sign that come on man really like you.
know me I don't give a [ __ ] and uh my. dad just kind of played it off the same. thing he's like man I'm not signing that. [ __ ] so that's whenever we leave at that. point I'm getting ready to go back to. Georgia. uh this is. roughly 24 hours later I get a phone. call it was one of my dad's employees. he's like hey man what's going on I was. nah not much just headed back to work he. said well we can't get to work so what. do you mean he's like well everything. they called it the barn where we had all.
of our equipment station where they. would meet before they would go to to uh. Fort Bragg he said the Barn's locked up. and everything's gone just the same day. no this is 24 hours later okay whenever. I'm getting ready to go back home. and uh. I said well what do you mean he's like. everything's gone. so I try to call my dad I can't get up. with him I was like just stand fast I'm. coming down there. so I get down there and like you said. Barnes locked up everything down there.
that I could see I mean you can still go. there to this day you could see our. staging area and how big it was and all. the equipment that we had there it's. absolutely Barren there's nothing there. it's all gone. and my dad at the time lived just around. the corner from there. I go up there to his house and the doors. kicked in. and like the video I showed you earlier. downstairs I did that illustrate how. close me and my father were because just.
telling the story from this point on it. it sounds inconsequential like oh well. sons and fathers have problems all the. time it's no big deal for bad blood to. you know to take over and just people. can be too much like each other. bullheaded and not. be able to communicate. and that's why I showed you that so you. could see what kind of I mean I've. called the damn guy my hero because he. was. but uh. I get in there and my dad's sitting at.
his couch and his office is just to the. left of his living room and everything. is torn out everything is gone and. I was like what's going on man he's like. it's all gone I was like do you think. this has something to do with range 19. and he stood up. that man you saw. and he said don't you ever. [ __ ] mention that name to me again. and that was the last time.
that I got to spend any time. face to face with my daddy. I'm sorry. it's uh. a life of business everything that we. built together and I got no answers.
I had no excuses no reasons no answers. whatsoever just unreturned phone calls. the few times I ever. did get a chance to speak to him it was. only my voice being heard he'd just hang. up on me he'd hang up on you yeah yeah I. didn't. my God it wasn't until. 2021.
that I I got to see him again. I didn't get to. he would just refuse to see you yeah. absolutely. and uh yeah it made me wonder. laughs. what what could somebody threaten you. with to make you turn your back on your. own child. I don't know how many children you have.
but I killed for my country what in the. hell do you think I would do for my. babies. [Music]. and I'm his only son. I'm his legacy. every long from the beginning of the. time to me is if it stops with me then. that's where it stops but he gave me. that to us that was important. foreign. yeah I cut my ties I I just I let it I.
let it go where. it's so hard to talk about man. but in uh. let's get back to my part of the. that affects my career and while I was. retired. it was uh. is your dad still alive no. he's not. when did he pass.
Ed November 10 2021. how. well that's. um they said that he had aggressive. cancer that they found late. that he was just ravaged it was. all over. and um. I know [ __ ] happens as I'm no stranger. to that.
with our careers and all the guys in. this room none of us are strangers to to. things happening. we have a better way of accepting it. than most people do I think. not him not like that. I'm not a conspiracy theorist I don't I. don't get into that part of life it's. just even some of it to me that I'm. aware of irrefutably makes me feel like. it's just absolutely insane but I will. never believe that my father died of. cancer or natural causes.
a man is as big and as powerful him not. because he couldn't have been taken. we're all measured. it was just he was healthy and then in. two months. he went from being 240 pounds to 105. wow just I mean when I they called me. and told me that he was in the hospital. and I went to go see him I walked by his. room twice.
I didn't I just. honestly the first thought that crossed. my mind is that man I feel bad for that. guy. that sucks. and then when they told me that's who it. was. now I went in and he still couldn't even. look at me. um. I don't know why. and I just. you know I took his hand I said look man. I don't even know if you can talk yeah.
but chemo scores or some a little like I. assume were chemo burns on his mouth it. was just these gnarly burns on his face. and his eyes were just cracked with. jaundice. and I was like man we're Square I don't. care what happened. I love you and tear went down his cheek. and I was asked to leave. he started to code. and that was the last time I saw him.
you know it's. shortly after. um. the incident. it was in uh. late 2011 or early 2012. I'm uh. I've already been JMP I cared out for a. combat jump got the full pack he had a. 1950s weapons case dangling. and I was the first man in the stick.
they gave us you know told us the. 30-second sign we're all hooked up and. ready to go the jump Masters got his arm. up getting ready to hit me in the back. and then we see shuffling and I'm only. one of 12 guys that I jump with every. time and it never deviated no change. that was my team it didn't matter if it. was Kona so konas those were my guys. only 12. and a guy from the back shuffles his way.
to the front and it's one of the S Corps. he is unmistakable. you can. I mean really you know yeah. good evening this is Frank Knight may I. introduce our co-editors for this. edition of the long Gene chronoscope. Larry lesser CBS News correspondent and. Kenneth Crawford National Affairs editor. of Newsweek magazine our very.
distinguished guest for this evening is. Admiral Richard E Byrne. Antarctica Treaty of 1959. an agreement signed by 12 nations in. which the Antarctic continent was made. demilitarized to be preserved for. scientific research what do you think. about that I must say that Admiral Byrd. our guest tonight is not only our. greatest living Explorer but he's been. an inspiration to countless Americans I.
know bird you've been to both the North. Pole and the South Pole is there any. unexplored land left on this Earth that. might appeal to adventurous Young. Americans oh yes there is. he was also previously contracted by. Raytheon polish Services as a cook to. work on a cat train that went across the. ice and he said the express purpose for. him I should say for that team working. for Raytheon was they were searching for.
missile site locations they find out. it's really usable not only to live in. but military. [Music]. and at first it didn't it just didn't. connect with me it just you know just. gave him a hey how you doing and he just. winked at me as soon as that job. Master's arm came up and the green.
light's getting ready to go off no. sooner than it hit and I felt his arm. coming down I feel something slapped me. on the side of the face and it was a. static line. and that man took off out of the. aircraft and when he did it snapped my. neck. and it pulled me out upside down. deployed my combat gear long story short. at a complete oscillation and I just. smacked the ground and I woke up a month. later. career's over. and I'll tell you something else you. mean you burned in.
yeah. your shoe didn't oh my [ __ ] happened my. shoot deployed. but whenever I fell out of the aircraft. and I think maybe we were jumping from. 800 feet if I had to guess that's what. it looked like from the The Horizon but. whenever he hit me going out of the. aircraft then the static line went tall. and it snapped my neck and I fell out of. the craft I'm not even sure how I fell. out but it deployed my lower end line on. the way out. so whenever my canopy did open it just.
started complete oscillation okay I. remember looking down and seeing. daylight. and just smack and it was over. you think that was an assassination. attempt I know beyond the set of a doubt. that it was and the only reason I tell. you that. is because. when my father died. not even a week after I buried that man. I'm at my our new house at the beach.
nobody knew I'd been there I hadn't even. changed my driver's license over I. hadn't even told the VA that's where I'm. living. not even a week after that man was. buried I get a knock at the door it's. that same guy who cut me out of the door. hands me a note it said thinking of you. it's like hey sorry about your loss. buddy. what would you do. and Dr Greer asked me he said well did. you feel like they were trying to.
intimidate you or they're trying to hurt. you absolutely not if that was the case. I would have never seen it coming. to me it just felt like somebody looking. you dead in the eye and said I can touch. you anytime I want. and then everything started flooding. back and that's what led us to here. I wrote out that entire story to Dr. Greer you you fell out and it it was a. week after your buried your old man you. said or the day after I'm sorry whenever.
he showed up yes that was a week after. my father. Rudy mayor's Cemetery. in Dublin North Carolina. nobody knew I was there. nobody. so this is Reese this is 2021. yes a. couple years ago. yes and you still and this happened when. was the accident when was well when was. the assassination attempt 2011 2012. did you recognize him down everywhere.
it's so hard to remember that's when I. got this yeah and ever since then it's. just been. fuzzy. and that's what led us to this that. scared me so damn bad. that I had decided I wasn't suicidal the. please don't get me wrong I was not. depressed I wasn't. I just felt like. at that point that it's not about me.
I've got my children. if something happens to them it's my. fault so I figured if I quietly recused. myself. Who's Gonna Know Better. What's It Gonna matter my story is over. get to see my dad again. and hopefully save my kids from this. [ __ ]. because everything changes. it's one thing when you lose your. brothers it's one thing when you lose. your family but if you.
worried about losing your children. that's that's taking it to a whole. another level yeah. yeah just because we choose to be. peaceful at this point in our lives does. not mean that we forgot how to be. violent. I'll take the whole damn world down to. protect those kids and I know you would. do the same for yours yeah. but what stopped me was. you. are you in contact with your mom.
is she alive she's alive. was she still married to your dad when. he passed no was she still married to. your dad in 2011. when this happened when the. when you witness the. monolithic slab no no no contact no and. unfortunately I I remind her a lot of my. father and it's nothing against her we. still have a great Rapport I mean I'm. I'm 43 years old with everything I've.
been through I still blow my mom I kiss. whenever I leave her it's not like you. know we did the same thing my dad did. it's just I know. how painful it was for her to lose him. and hearing me speak. you know we have the same eyes you guys. ever talk about this no no was there any. communication from your dad to your. mother that you're aware of the only way. she's going to know about any of this is. by watching the podcast okay. all right.
but you know and that's. I'm I'm ashamed absolutely ashamed from. being too afraid to keep going. you know it's I didn't even bring up the. homeless bit because I did it to myself. it wasn't some crazy circumstance that I. could blame on anybody else it was my.
fault because I was afraid. so this destroyed your life you damn. right it did. I'm still. I'm still trying to rebuild them. you know but I don't I don't ask anybody. for anything I don't it's not about that. to me. you know it's. I lost all familial contact whenever I. lost him in that sense. I mean the war is bad enough. watching your brothers.
go through what you feel like you should. have went through. you know I can't speak for everybody but. survivor's guilt tears me up every day. now if there's one thing I hate myself. for isn't not trying it's just not given. enough. I can't the the names I say at night. when I go to sleep the man that I think. about is I just I miss them so damn bad. because those guys I knew that they. would die for me some of them did.
and the one safety net that I had here. was him. when you went to. it was just you and your old man that. went to range 19 that day or were there. any other did you guys have any workers. with you no just you and your dad just. he and I. what do you. why are you coming forward. why did why are you coming forward to to. educate the public about what you saw.
that day same thing I said at the press. conference I'm damn tired of doing. nothing. you know I can take. losing my career. I'm fine with that I didn't think I was. going to do it forever. I'm fine with losing material. possessions but one thing I will not. stand for to watch people in this. country just hand their freedoms over. and think that the government is doing. them a favor. watching my brothers who would rather be.
homeless than have to deal with the. [ __ ] that got us there in the first. place and it's not because we're afraid. it's because we don't feel like we did. enough we feel like we're just putting. our burden on other people and that's. something that they don't deserve. you're willing to die for people who. don't even damn like you to me that's. absolutely [ __ ] insane but that's. just the kind of people that we are. and it wasn't until I heard something. that.
Herrera said. our oath didn't expire. good damn look taking this [ __ ] off my. neck. right now somewhere there's a little kid. sitting somewhere across this world and. he's got his Grandpa's combat boots and. one day he's going to be old enough to. fit in them. and if we sit back and do nothing. if we do not do lead by example. they're going to think that it's okay. just to be quiet. I think for too damn long good Americans.
it doesn't matter if you're a combat vet. to me it doesn't matter if you didn't. shed the same blood that I did. what matters the most to me is good. people who believe. in the flag that was sitting over there. that so many people died for the one. that was flying over Ground Zero. the sacrifice whether it was the false. flag or not that flag is important to me. and I'd be damned if whatever life I've. got left I'm going to sit there and be.
quiet about it because there's a big. fight and if we do nothing. the bad boys are going to prevail. they're going to take over and I don't. think we want that. this world could be so much easier if. they would just let it out. but somebody wants to make money off of. it. I recommend you for encouragement that. means a ton. to everybody that's listening and um I. know what that takes and I just I want.
to say man I'm. I'm sorry about your old man. I'm really sorry to hear about that and. and um yeah but he'd be damn glad that. you wouldn't let me go all the way. I appreciate that. that means a lot to me. glad you're here buddy. but. do you have anything you want to say. before we end it.
