Robert Ingomar Doerr

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Bill Welter on January 8, 2008:

Bob, aka Snakes to the '55 Plebe Swim Team, and I swam together and ate next to each on the '55 Plebe Swim Team Table. We were both Backstrokers so we did many a lap together dodging the Varsity divers. Snakes was as nice a guy as anyone would want to be around. Nothing phased him in the cruel world of a '55 Plebe. Many a day would find me down in the dumps until I spent some time with Snakes, when his carefree attitude always cheered me up. For this I will always be indebted.

Well done Snakes........RIP
