Be Thou At Peace

Colonel Toon:

When I was a little boy in second grade, I remembered seeing your picture, a military portrait of you in the US ARMY Dress Blue Uniform. This was in the catalogue of New York Military Academy Cornwall on the Hudson, NY. That was in 1971, you were headmaster at NYMA. It only seemed like yesterday I saw your portrait!! I also remembered it. I saw it again when I was recently on the web page of New York Military Academy. It's an honor for you to be a West Pointer!
