At some point in my career as an energy attorney/policy advocate, I somehow ended up on an email list for defense industry trade conferences. Every time I’d get an email about a trade conference about tanks or light armored personnel carriers, I’d share them with Brad. It always made him laugh, probably because of the idea of me (who really has ZERO business getting these emails) wandering around a conference full of defense contractors. We used to joke about going to one of those conferences because who else would you take to something like that other than Brad?! It would have been hilarious (and incredibly interesting since Brad knew a thing or two about vehicle armor…)

I miss you, Brad, and all the little things we used to share, inane and otherwise.
