Ted Kazuo Yamashita

West Point, 1963

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Wolf Fletter on June 20, 2020:

Ted and I weren't in the same company while at USMA. Rather Ted was a friend with whom I shared many conversations on our walks to and from Thayer and our company's areas. Ted was one of those individuals all of us are fortunate to meet in our lives and are individuals who have impacted us, though perhaps we can't recall just what it was that drew to one another. Ted was that sort of person. He wasn't in my circle of friends from skiing, from contacts in any particular sport, or from my hours on the area. Ted and I would look forward to our conversations to and from Thayer. We recognized this and when we saw one another after graduation at reunions we relished the chance to update each other. I feel so fortunate to have known Ted and thankful for being able to say this. God bless this fine individual.
