Sad to hear of Dwight's passing. My and my family's condolences to the Clark family. I served with Dwight for many years in the National Guard and enjoyed many hours of talking about so many different subjects with him. He taught me many things about being a good NCO when I joined 3655 HEMCO and during the years we served together. 3655 is gone and now we are loosing many of those that made it such an outstanding Maintenance Company but the memories live on and so will my memories of Dwight. I am proud to say that Dwight was a friend and mentor. May this old soldier rest in peace he has earned it. Hand salute.
