Mike from Seattle has requested I post this on his behalf
In march of this year, I was visiting Israel and had met Danny in the lz at kamon. I drove him to the launch to retrive his vehicle and decided to fly. I ended up crashing minutes into my flight after spinning my glider.
I was badly injured and needed to be medivaced off the mountain..Danny was the first person to reach me and was with me until the helicopter lifted me off the mountain. Many people came to my aid that day and I am grateful to all of you. Danny that day was my HERO. He did so much in keeping me calm and as comfortable as possible, while waiting for medics to arrive. He also kept me concious and alert. His demeanor was comforting and I developed alot of respect and owed him so much gratitude, for being there when I was in dire need.
He was humble in not allowing me to do anything for him, to say thank you and show him my appreciation. I regret that when I return to Israel this March, I will not get the chance to buy Danny dinner and to fly with him.
I want his wife and children to know, that her husband and their father was a Hero to me.
God Bless You ALL Mike Daniel USA
