Ned Linch Motivations 869 Words4 Pages 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. He is a selfless and above and beyond performer who works well with others to accomplish the teamâs goal. Iâve personally flown with him in both the military and in our civilian jobs at Delta. I can attest to his outstanding character and ability to work with others especially in high pressure situations.
