Dennis Blair Lewis

West Point, 1965

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Dave La Rochelle on September 1, 2009:

Dennis and I were linemen on the Army football team, or down in the trenches people that coaches seemed to ignore unless you did something wrong, like let a back run over you, or jump off sides, or be blocked by two 280# linemen from Syracuse.
It was a fun time with all the sweat and gore that we went through, just to be on the team and play football.

Then several years after graduation, Dennis was a very diligent Super Bowl Host in his favorite hotel in Las Vegas.
We had fun in the "trenches" again and played games all night.
It was a fun time for those associated with Army football '65, and a welcomed break on those weekends.

He was a great guy and a person everyone admired for his hard work and his hard play.
