Robert Leslie Olson

West Point, 1987

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Matt Reyes on February 15, 2001:

Rob had more to do with my success as a new 2LT at Ft. Campbell than any other person. Through my time as a Company FSO through Desert Shield and Storm, to firing battery XO, I was privileged to have Rob just two years ahead of me showing me the ropes and giving me priceless advice. He is s shining example of what we should strive to become.

Even though I have left the service I have continued to use lessons I learned from him.

I am blessed to have had the opportunity to know him.
