West Point, 1944
Be Thou At Peace

| At Hopewell High School we called Pierre "Robert". I was in the Boy Scouts with him and admired Robert very much. He was a very bright young man. I would visit his home prior to the war years. We would camp together and share our boyhood thoughts for the future. I was stationed in Antwerp, Belgium, in April 1944 when my mother sent word that Robert had been killed in the War. |
