Thank You

Dear WO Stephen Tronerud, Thank you for your service as an Utility & Light Cargo Single Rotor Helicopter Pilot. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is Agent Orange Awareness Month. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it still needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

memories

Steve, you and I buddy, we were the prior service guys that got all of the calls to help the TACs with pre-flight. I respected you so much and looked up to you. Remember the times that we were on break outside the new classrooms at Ft. Rucker just having a smoke and talking about what we were going to do when we got back from Vietnam? Of course I went to Germany and you went to Vietnam. I was shocked and saddened beyond comprehension when I learned of your death. You were and remain a hero Steve, save me a spot cause when it's my time I want to go to wherever you are.

Remembering An American Hero

Dear WO Stephen Lyle Tronerud, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.

May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.

With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter
