Because it's a representation of RSF itself.   Everything that a member should strive to be and achieve.  He had to be a great pilot and a great leader.  He had to be a presence in everything RSF was a part of or participated in.  Simply, he had to be Mac.  'Mac is RSF'           Made by RSF_Mac, October 1st, 2002
