Mike was hard as woodpeckers lips but a fair and tough NCO when I arrived at Hard Rock Charlie.
Back before tough man and combatives Mike had a boxing background and would pretty much take on anyone. Always walking up and thumbing his nose in a boxers stance always wanting to know if you wanted a shot at the title.
I crossed paths with lots of NCO's and Ranger's in my time, some leave a lasting impression, some I forgot minutes after meeting them. Sgt.(at that time) Donatelli was not one I ever forgot. He even reached out to me here when he joined, first comms in like 20 years.
RIP Mike.
