Harvey A. Garn

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Walt McCrillis on August 29, 2003:

Mike stood out from the rest from the very first day of Beast Barracks in 4th Company where we enjoyed our days under the tutelage of Dick Shea and his 'gracious' staff. What quickly made him a standout was his positive attitude throughout those hectic first days. He seemed to revel in the pressure and provided a model for the rest of us who found it to be something less than revelry! I went to C-2, he to I-1, so we saw little of each other the remaining 4 years and met only once at one of the later reunions, but I'm sure that attitude was always there -- the grin was. Rest in peace, Mike -- it's a privilege to have known you and served with you, even if only in the halcyon days of Beast Barracks!
