Robert Leslie Olson

West Point, 1987

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Jennifer Archambault on February 16, 2001:

I am very fortunate to say that Major Olson was my tactical officer my plebe year at the Academy. He made E2 the company to be in, because of his tremendous leadership skills and awesome personality. I remember bragging, and I still do, about being able to have Maj Olson as my Tac. Anyone who has come into contact with him is truly blessed. He possessed characteristics as a leader that I want to have when I graduate. I consider myself blessed to have known Major Olson and I will always remember what I learned from him. He could make anyone do anything because they simply trusted him and looked up to him.

Major Olson, you will not be forgotten. You made an impact on E2 that will live on forever. May God Bless you and your family.
