John Thomas Gamble

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Russ Parsons on July 30, 2010:

J.T. was a very smart guy. And, he was the only guy I ever knew who could sleep with his eyes open. I remember being in class with the instructor droning away and hearing snoring coming from J.T. Yet when you looked at him, with his hands folded over his buddha-like belly, his eyes were wide open, albeit with a somewhat glassy stare. There's no telling how much extra sleep John got in class, but it didn't seem to hurt his grades any.
