I met Major, when I was in the 82nd Airborne. He was assigned to me when he got released from SF selection. I was his squad leader when we were in Afghanistan in 2005. He was a great person and I will for sure miss him. I cannot believe that he is gone, we use to talk frequently and somehow we separated when he left for Afghanistan again. I just found out he died today, which is the anniversary of my best friend’s death who died in the war and who knew Major too. I will miss you brother and the last time I spoke to him that is what he said, “take care brother, I see you later”. RIP….

I hired Chris for a rough gig here a year ago. Shame the rough gig got cancelled….but good for us in that he was larger than life, loved by everyone, and a great friend to all. It’s been tough on the staff, and I’m sure even tougher on his family and friends. God Bless Chris and his family, he is sorely missed.

Christian Major sounds like someone that should have lived forever and may very well do just that in the hearts and minds of everyone he touched in his all too short life. We can only hope that his kindness and joyfull energy passed from him to others will continue to have a ripple effect long after his passing, touching even more hearts as his life story is passed from person to person. Getting to know him would have been a pleasure, unfortunately an opportunity missed, but you never know we could still meet somewhere some time. I look forward to the opportunity to render a salute and shake his hand.

I knew Christian in high school and played ball with him. He was a great kid and kind soul. although his life was short, it was filled with honor and friends. As a former SARC Devil Doc, I know of the commitment and sacrifice it took to do exactly what it is that Christian did. He was a man among men. RIP Christian

One of my favorite people with the biggest hearts of anyone i know. There was never any being mad at christian no matter what he did or said, i tried many times but could never stay angry for longer than a minute. A gentle giant with a heart of gold. He will be missed by me, all that knew him and all of the unfortunate people who never had the pleasure of meeting him. A truly unique man and an amazing friend. Love you always Christian. RIP
