John Michael Tonra

West Point, 1989

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by James Tonra on January 9, 2025:

My brother John loved West Point. He dedicated himself completely to getting into West Point, and then dedicated his life to succeeding at West Point. He had a hard time mentally after leaving the military, but in spirit he was always a West Pount cadet. Honestly, it sucks to see that nobody (except one person...thank you!!!) has anything to say about John on this site, but it does not change the great person he was at the core, and that I remember. Choosing a military life path is no walk in the park.
