Well guys, SIR was released officially a few days ago (though we got a read-in many months ago). And growler golf is this Friday, which was the last place I saw either of them alive a year ago, and another member of the flight who didn't die. I go by that golf course every time I drive to work Navy, and I haven't passed view of that particular hole without thinking about them since. That'll be a tough part of the course, for sure. Just under a month from a year ago.
