Wiley M. Mangum

West Point, 1950

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Michal Motykiewicz on November 2, 2011:

Dear Dr. Mangum,

You were the toughest man I have met. You were my mentor, you taught me to be strong, to believe myself, and never give up.

You opened a world of opportunities to me.

Whenever life throws me a curve, I always think of what you would do, and follow through.

I wish my plans to visit you after your retirement had materialized. I would have loved to go to the range and listen to your war stories again.

You have been and always will be my hero.

I am proud and honored to have met you and will miss you dearly.
