One of the few to not care about PC; a bit excessive and gung ho at times (as in shoot them all etc.); a reporter, of the few to know what he was talking about, who could recognise warriors and hardware.
My guess, it was the way he wanted to go. At least there likely was no suffering. A few years later would have been better.
Reading his mag. complemented well mainstream and internet news.
Yes he will be missed; one of another age.
This mort subite was appropriate for a great lover of Gueuse. |

Former tank commander and recce guy! Cool. The man was fairly old too; I don't think the article gives his age, but if he joined the military in 1957, say at 18, that would make him over 70!
------------------
i think it was 1975 that he joined the Belgian Army per the article |
