Albert Franklin Oppel

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Willie Welter on April 29, 2002:

During our cadet days, I got to be pretty close with Barney. He was in H2 and I was in F2. Our paths never crossed after graduation but Barney was a friend I will never forget. He was a hell of a good football player and had a brain, to my envy, that allowed him to cruise through WestPoint in Cruise Control.

Well done old friend, be at peace with The Lord.

Willie
