Reginald Bernard McFadden

West Point, 1977

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Darrell Peebles on May 31, 2022:

Reg, I'm way too late in posting this, but some things need be said. As a Black man, I'm proud of how you represented at USMA, a star in a sport few Black men get any acclamation for, pistol, and a star in a far more popular undertaking, boxing. All that combined with strong academic prowess and an ability to be warm and friendly anytime. I'm proud to have been the one to introduce you to Becky, and you took it all the way home. To say you were a good man could never suffice to reflect the strength of character I saw up close and personal.

I met your beautiful daughter at our 25th class reunion. She was as blessed to have you as we were to have you as a classmate. Rest-in-peace Reg.
