I am writing to give Ned Linch my highest recommendation for admission to The Graduate School at Auburn.  I have known Ned for over 20 years and I flew F-16s with him in the Alabama Air National Guard to include combat over Iraq.  He has always exceeded my expectation with his performance and attitude.
