West Point, 1959

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Michael Snyder on May 28, 2020:

To The Family and the memory of Colonel, Courtney E. Prisk was saddened to hear of Colonel Prisk's Passing.
I was stationed in Aschaffenburg, Germany in 1974-1976 and had the pleasure of serving as a Colonel's orderly for
Colonel Prisk.
It was my pleasure and honor to serve under Colonel Prisk.
I was a young fatherless 20 yr. old and Colonel Prisk was very Kind and treated me very well.
After all these years
I have never forgotten him and I have always Spoken of him with due respect. He left quite an impression on me. I looked up to him as a father figure I guess.
I am now an old 66 yr. old man. with 2 grandchildren and
my Daughter's name is Courtney. Yes! Named after the Colonel.

Rest in peace, Sir!

Respectfully
Michael S. Snyder
