Dennis Earle Hawker

West Point, 1965

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Tommy Thompson on September 6, 2024:

What Dick Knudson said 2X above! Denny was a good friend to me, to our I2 company, and our "Grey Ghost" unauthorized '53 Plymouth non-exclusive social group. I cannot remember who was whose wingman on our firstie trip, but I do remember some fun times exploring the various venues. Denny spent a considerable amount of time at the pool(s) attempting to teach a 6 foot wrestler how to do a one-and-a-half front tuck; I got ⅔ of the way there. Then we had another beer...

Requiescat in Pace, old friend.

Tommy T.
