James Edward McShea

West Point, 1977

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by John C. Schellman on October 24, 2008:

I remember Hobie reporting to beast with shoulder length hair, which was quickly shortened. I think he reported from California which resulted in some upper classmen calling him Cosmcshea! At the time, this seemed to be a reflection of some respect for an individual who got his "cool" from a deep-seated self-assuredness. You inspired me, Hobie, during that difficult time. Rest in peace.
