SSG Ricketts was a good man and a proud Paratrooper.  We went through WLC together as E-5s;he definitely had a lot of experience he brought to the table. If I remember right this was his fourth or fifth deployment. His stories reflected just how small our community is: his platoon sergeant during their combat jump was my senior drill sergeant at Benning and one of his squad leaders was a black hat for my class at Airborne School.  Alot of the guys he talked about in his stories were guys that I served with in my batt.  


I was in Iraq when I saw his face and name in the Army Times. Couldn’t believe it was him, at first. Our nation and Division lost a truly dedicated and experienced American.

RIP SSG Seth Ricketts. All American! All the Way! Airborne!

Thank you SSG Ricketts,

America is fortunate to have men like you.

I feel so sorry for your children who will never know you.

You have good personal friends here at Arfcom, and I think that means you have lots of good friends everywhere.
