[MilCom] [iScanMarine] Jack Painter

[Duke]

I'm totally shocked. I didn't know he was gone. He was a great friend and so knowledgeable in mil radio comms. Although I missed his great posts after he joined the CG AUX, I know he enjoyed that challenge. I'm at a loss for words as I did not see this coming.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends. 
Smooth sailing Jack.
