G'Kar

I never met Andrew Olmsted. He was never more than a voice on the bitstream to me, but I respected him. He blogged under his own name, and also was a front-pager at Obsidian Wings, under the name of "G'Kar" - a well-chosen nom de plume. He was a sane and sober conservative, and a welcome voice at OW. His posts were meaty, humane, and honorable.

Maj. Andrew Olmsted was killed in action in Iraq on Thursday. Hilzoy has posted his last words here.

Rest in peace, warrior.

Damn. I'd read his blog.

Thanks for passing on the word.

Ave et vale, Major Olmstead.
