William James Whitehead

West Point, 1963

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Ramon M. Ong on May 9, 2002:

A final salute to a fellow West Pointer from another Vietnam veteran who remembers well his friend and classmate. Bill and I were members of the Catholic Chapel Choir so we would sing together every Sunday morning at the choir loft except when he was an acolyte at the altar. His unique trademark was his brilliant smile. He had a smile for everyone even when he was in a bad mood.
