Robert William Burnell

West Point, 1960

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Keith Garner on May 31, 2011:

I met Bob in Beast Barracks and had several classes with him over the years. We were also on the Debate Council and Forum and the German club together. Bob was considerably better in German than I! Since we were in the same cadet battalion, we saw each other fairly often. He was always friendly and had a good sense of humor. I did not get to serve with him after graduation; however, I was both shocked and saddened to learn of his passing.
