In Memoriam

Col Anderson was a man who never looked down on no one and who was well respected by the maintainers. I was stationed at Hill AFB 16thTFS when we lost him he was allways remembered as a man who stopped and told all of us "hello how are you" Never a frown on his face.

I remember this man very well. He always gave us all inspiration at work. I was also in the 16tfs when this happened and it was very sad. He will be sadly missed but never forgotten.

I was Col Anderson's adjutant. He was always positive but realistic. He told me a lot of inside information about the squadron and the people he dealt with, subordinates and his supervisors. Sometimes he would have me come in his office and shut the door and just let out about how his day was going...good or bad. He was fair with everyone and had no favorites. He was very comical and especially about political correctness. I had just moved on to the Phillipines 6 months before his death. I was very saddened by his death. He was a great and good man, and the most honest and fair supervisor that I ever had in the Air Force.
