Richard Clay Breakiron

West Point, 1951

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by LTC Michael McGurk on October 8, 2006:

Like many Dick was a warm voice on the cyber-net to me. A man who reached across miles to touch the hearts, souls and lives of so many.

Dick was proud of his work, but you would never know it from him. He has accomplished more for "West Pointers" and the military family in a few short years, than most will do in a lifetime of service.

Dick helped so many and asked for nothing in return, a true gentleman, warrior and friend.

WELL DONE! Be thou at peace, the long Grey Line is less for your passing but we know you will continue to "grip hands thou it be from the shadows."

Michael
