Raymond R. Battreall

West Point, 1949

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by William T. Moore on September 14, 2012:

Ray was a good friend and classmate. We were in Co F-1 together. He was a bell ringer for the Protestant Chapel. When my wife, Jane, and I got married at WP we had to wait until June 9, 1949 which was several days after graduation. Ray agreed to stay at WP and be in our wedding. That was very nice of him but typical of his behavior. Never saw much of him until about 2005 when my wife, Ann, (Jane had died in 1999) visited him in Tuscon. We will all miss him very much. With much love and respect, Bill Moore
