David Lee Alexander

West Point, 1968

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Cadet on April 6, 2000:

Coming from the Pennsylvania farming area, Dave entered West Point and turned in his plowshare for a sword. He excelled in the engineering portion of the curriculum and barely gained a working knowledge of English. Dave was cursed with high aptitude, but he nefver let this hinder him in the pursuit of his one objective...pleasure, which included the Sandhurst exchange trip to England. This wild eartly farm boy will always be remembered for the loudness and length of his laugh coupled with an all-knowing grin.
