Inspirational Quote about Captain Rippetoe:
Neighbor Palmer Mason, who saw "Rusty" grow up next door, said he was not surprised that Rippetoe died while trying to help someone. He said, "His whole family is like that. He was a very outgoing, strong, and sensitive person that you always wanted to be around. He made you feel good. It was 'Rusty' running to help. he was always there for you (growing up next door)."

[ There is much more to write about, share, and become motivated by Captain Rippetoe's life story and Army service. And, I'm sure there are other alums from past wars that should be researched and honored. Additionally, you have a Hall of Fame group whose detailed stories should be added to this IAF's Patriot Honor Roll for all to access and witness.
YOU HAVE THE POWER TO EDIT & CUSTOMIZE THIS PAGE! Follow a short video tutorial, get access to this page from Flag Steward staff, and then you can showcase the Patriots that inspire you, and your bar and barbershop patrons, to stand proudly during Our Flag ceremonies. You can do it! Email [email protected] for access to this/your page now. PS - If a 49-year old Jarhead Marine can build this website than you can certainly handle customizing this page to your liking. ;) ]
