Robert Leslie Olson

West Point, 1987

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by 2LT Reyn Landreth on February 18, 2001:

The time I spent working for MAJ O was the most fulfilling time for me at the academy. His leadership style seemed the perfect combination of humor, sincerity, and simply taking care of soldiers...all with a huge dip in. We all revered and respected him as an officer and as a person. After knowing MAJ O, I was actually excited to be a future officer and in the army. He believed in me when few others did, and for this support I will always be grateful. He and his family were truly a part of the E2 Dog team. All of us former Dogs stationed here in Hawaii want the Olson family to know we are praying for them. MAJ O will be missed but never forgotten.
