IntelForum Salutes Col. John Macartney

It is with profound sorrow that we report that Colonel John Macartney, USAF Ret., passed away on 24 November 2001 as a result of cancer.  Col. Macartney had faithfully contributed his weekly Internet Email column "Intelligence Stuff" to IntelForum and its members since November 1999, only stopping a few weeks ago.  This link will take you to the Obituary Page of The Washington Post on which his obituary is presented.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to Col. Mac's family and those he loved and served with the utmost honor, courage, compassion and respect.  While perhaps a cliché to some, those who knew Colonel Macartney held him in the highest esteem and pronounced him a true gentle warrior.
