James Weldon Surber

West Point, 1954

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by James E. Drummond on January 7, 2000:

I am deeply saddened to hear of Jim's death. I shared three years with Jim in Company F1, however, I have not seen him since the Class of '54 graduated. He was a great company mate and I have always thought of him as the model for cadet personal appearance. Ramrod straight, he carried himself with a military grace and presence that set an example for all of us. Grip hands, Jim, and well done.
