Godspeed, "General Hammond"

Don S. Davis, the actor who played General Hammond on Stargate SG-1 for seven years just died.

I always loved his character; Gen. Hammond was a tough guy who loved and took care of his people - and he had a subtle and precise sense of humor. Just as much as Richard Dean Anderson's character, Col. Jack O'Neill, shaped the series, so did Gen. Hammond - and Mr. Davis played him with great skill and grace.

My heart and prayers go out to his family.
