He was one of the recruiters in Newark when I joined the Army in 2003. Went to National Trails with him and some other recruits. I also ran into him a few times at the Hartford Fair after basic training. He was a really good guy and I'm honored to have know him. It saddens me and pisses me off when this kind of thing happens to someone I knew. Stand down SFC Hughes, your mission is complete. Rest In Peace Brother.
