Daniel Brian Hyde

West Point, 2007

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Stephen Fennessy on March 12, 2009:

For three years, I had the fortune of working with Dan as members of E4. Dan was one of the best Cadets, Leaders, and Soldiers I have ever met. His calm, cool demeanor, combined with his likeable personality made him one of the most popular leaders in our Company and the Corps. When most found reasons to complain, Dan found solutions. When most were worn-out or tired, Dan was strong. When most felt incapable of making change, Dan found a way. Dan - you were one of the best.

To the Hyde family - thank you for allowing us to share some time with Dan. Through his work ethic and kindness, he helped to shape the views of countless Cadets and Soldiers. Those of us who are left will take what we learned from Dan and carry it with us. We will not forget. We will cling to what Dan taught us, and pass it on to others... his memory will live on.

Steve
