William David Burroughs

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by William L. Anderson on March 24, 1999:

I spent four years with Dave in the English Department at the AFA. We became good friends and I helped hiim get his recce asignment when we both left in '64.

I next met Dave at the '73 River Rart Reunion in Las Vegas, renewing our friendship again and helping him through a tough time. We saw each other again at several RRVA reunions and there were good times.

I had come to know him well and I cared deeply for him. He was a fine person to be with and a good friend. He was strong and true and tough and I will always remember him for that..

May he rest finally in peace. Godspeed.
