Gordon "Reb400" Buster

Last week, the 101st lost a member of our squad. Reb400 passed away. He was a great squad mate, always fun to talk to, always willing to help out. He had a deep southern twang to his voice, unmistakable when he logged into teamspeak. He had been in a lot of pain the last year and he wasn't able to play as much. Reb loved the game, loved to fly, loved to tank, and loved to play aside his squad mates. The 101st has lost a great squad mate and the game has lost a great player.

We'll miss you Reb,
S!
The 101st Airborne

Huskergi: " Reb was actually his second account as his first one was "locked" by CRS for some reason. He chose REB400 as he wanted a name that reflected being "reborn". I hope with all my heart that he is infact reborn and enjoys a nice beach somewhere with cute girls running endless drinks to him and that he has NO PAIN.As like a lot of you, Reb and I run together in game very often. He and I also spent many hours in the air over targets. I really enjoyed his company and conversations on those long flights from behind lines or over slow air targets. He was always a fun person to run with and made me laugh on those nights that I didn't have much to laugh about.Reb, buddy, you have been missed by your gaming buddies since you departed the game......now you have left the earth and everyone is missing you all over. Remember bud, full throttle, max prop, wep on, max climb and roll out towards the horizon when you reach R1........ I miss you bud! Make me a waypoint up there.....I'll meet you after I lift off.

Reb was a semi late night Central Time Zoner like me. As squadmates we flew together a lot and it was always a blast. He wanted to be perfect in the air and sometimes it just got the best of him....we would both laugh and keep trying. He was a heck of a msp runner to. He setup many many times dropping fbs night after night. We were buds.S! again Reb......my 101st buddy."

Bigrow: " One of the good guys, anyone who spent any time on an op with him or on TS will know he was a nice guy. He was ALWAYS willing to help a squaddie and would gladly drive from 3 towns back to help an ally in need.Many of us at 101st feel we've lost a friend."

Sport420: " S! Reb400He was one of the first 'friends' I made when I joined the 101st and in the game period. He was always willing to help, and the deep texas twang in his voice brought a ton of character to the game.I'm glad you're no longer in pain Reb, you deserved better, but now you're up there, where 109s have no cannons and Tigers shoot daises. You were a great squadmate and a great friend. S!"

Desouzaj: " Really sad news. Reb was a great man and an awesome teamplayer. I had the honor of being in the squad with him at the time when I started playing the game and he helped me out a lot.It's true God doesn't pick only the bad ones, but I am certain that He has a special place for Reb in paradise.Rest in peace my friend! We salute you!"

Derekb25: " Definatly an awesome guy to fight the good fight with. Always willing to do what he can and then some. The 101st, CRS, the players of WWIIOL and the World all lost a great player. Reb you have fun up there with that new MMO in the sky. I will be there to hear that country voice once again in the future. S!"
