Chester Hilton Pond

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

This is coming in kinda' late, Chet, but I know that you'll understand. We were roommates during Beast Barracks and I still think of that song you used to sing - and often.
"Oh she was comin' round the mountain, bout ninety miles an hour, When the chain on her bicycle broke! They found her in the grass, with a sprocket up her a--, And her t-- it was punctured by a spoke!"

I thought that your song should be preserved for posterity in the Annals of the class of 1955.
