Bob Johnson was certainly a patriot and strong supported of West Point. He stepped forwarded and volunteered to work on a very important survey of West Point graduates about 6 years ago. We met on the web and worked together on this endeavor for about 3 months. Then we went to West Point to tell the AOG and West Point what the grad community was thinking at that time. It was comprehensive to say the least. I knew little of Bob up to that point, but was glad for his tireless help and then humbled that he would drive to West Point to be with me at the briefing. A number of stalwart grads from the 50's supported this effort. No doubt he was outspoken and and forceful in his views, but he had a heart of gold and I was able to see some of his soft side. We have lost a strong member of the Long Gray Line. He has had a strong influence on West-Point.Org and helped shape our future. Rest in peace dear friend. |
