David Benton Vann

West Point, 1965

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Preston Hughes on October 6, 2015:

I met Dave when he and I joined other classmates in H-2 at start of our cow year. Got to know him much better Firstie year, when he would come to my room and use my phone to call "Stosh". Bill Juchau and I would pretend to be totally involved in our studies, so as not to appear to be listening in on their conversation.
Dave was a good friend and a great classmate. Though I did not serve with him later on in the Army, my memories of him from H-2 are special to me.
