While I cannot compare him to The White Death, this Finnish man brings a lot of death behind him nontheless. Being the driving force behind S1, Cpl. Gates rallies his men to him not only with great leadership skills and charisma, but also with his close bond with the men he leads, and the downright scary skills in game. I’m honored to have a Cpl. so competent in my Platoon as he is, as much as I’m honored to commemorate your 4 years and over 6 months of duty.
Cpl. Gates, congratulations on your 9th Army of Occupation Medal!
