Final photos from Dad in D.C.

The Industrial College of the Armed Forces (ICAF) was established by Bernard Baruch in 1924 so that the military and industry could collaborate for our National Security; each could understand the other. Today ICAF graduates about 320 student / year. The students are from each branch of the US Military, many Departments of the Government, Industry, and foreign Military. The graduates receive a Masters of Science in National Resource Strategies, each student also has a specialty focus industry; my Dad's was Reconstruction and Nation Building. ICAF's most famous graduate was President Eisenhower, his industry was transportation and that eventually lead to his building the Nation's Interstate Highway system.

I believe this is a French cannon out in front of the ICAF building.

On the Fort McNair, the base that ICAF is located, is a group of tennis courts. That is the location where the Lincoln assassins were hung.


Here is the Redempterest Monostary (Holy Redemear College) where my dad lived for the time he was studying at ICAF. Notice the cross at the top of the Monistary.

Part of the graduation of ICAF, we are so proud of my dad!

Proverbs 18:24

Brother Tom is the care taker and brother in the Redempterest monastery Holy Redeemer College (HRC). He became my dad's close friend while he was living at HRC.
