OT: Lt Gen Bill Odom

Post by PaperPatch »

Lt. General Odom laid to rest today, September 8, in Arlington National Cemetery. A good article on this soldiers life.

Brave men often stand alone...the rest gallop with the herd.

I went to IOBC at Ft Benning with his son while he was at NSA. Watched him after that, there is indead a void.

It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
