Written by Bob Sinnema   
Sunday, 04 June 2006
From The Providence Journal 5/31/06:

"SOUTH KINGSTOWN -- If it needs some helpful hints on how to deal with his yearlong assignment to Afghanistan, Lt. Col. Paul C. Krajeski's family can turn to a book that's sure to find a spot on the family coffee table.

It's titled: Household Baggage: The Moving Life of a Soldier's Wife.

Household Baggage contains 54 essays -- many humorous, some emotion-filled -- all written by one soldier's wife: Marna Krajeski, Paul Krajeski's wife."

Full story here.

McMahon Remembrance Book
Written by Valerie Coffey   
Thursday, 23 March 2006

To honor our '85 Fallen Heros, I would like to prepare a Remembrance Book for each, starting with Mike McMahon.  This is a group effort, and it's a way we can show Mike's family that we loved and cared about him, and we appreciate his service and the extreme sacrifice he made for our country.  I encourage each member of our class to put some energy into making this something his wife and kids will cherish.

Keith Robinson pins on Colonel
Written by Valerie Coffey   
Friday, 10 March 2006
Our very own Keith Robinson was frocked to Colonel on March 10, 2006, surrounded by family and friends. BG Patrick O’Reilly, Program Director of the Missile Defense Agency Ground Based Midcourse Defense (MDA GMD) Program said “Keith is the right person to be heading up the Test Directorate for the GMD Program. He is the most qualified person in the nation for this job, and over the next six months he will be in the spotlight as nations around the world will be watching as the GMD System is tested in an operational configuration for the first time in history. This testing is the culmination of over 20 years of hard work and a $90 billion investment.”

Due to the critical position Keith is filling, and his proven capability, the US Senate voted to approve his frocking effective February 27, 2006. Keith’s wife Mary Ann and his two kids pinned on his eagles. At one point during his remarks, Keith got teary eyed, but he told the audience that he was “ok with that.”

Thursday, 09 March 2006
Colonel William Frank Steer, USMA Class of 1925 and an honorary Major General, passed away today at the Matsunaga Center for Aging, Honolulu, Hawaii at the age of 106. His daughter Doveline Borges Steer was at his side.

Colonel Steer was the oldest graduate of West Point at the time of his death and his legendary service to his nation and the state of Hawaii has all who knew him in mourning. He served in Flanders Field during World War I and was the recipient of France's highest military decoration the "Legion of Honor."

He resided with two of his three daughters in Kailua, HI until the time of his death. He was in excellent health right to the end and died peacefully in his sleep at 1705 hours, March 7, 2006. Sincerely,

Don Devaney

Administrative Aide to MG Steer
