Try www.google.com. Enter his name at it will give you a bunch of people under that name.

That was a good suggestion, if that doesn't bring anything up, go to yahoo then military then US Army and look try a search, which will probably show nothing (as this will look at current documents), but then try to look at West Point or other forts. Also, which might be the easiest, (except for the obvious of their name) do a search for Army Historian...

I hate to say this, since I'm not an Aggie, but Texas A&M claims to have produced more generals that West Point. I'm sure they would info on all aggie generals.

include VMI (Virginia Military Institute for you yankees), The Cidadel in Charleston, SC and a school in Vermont whose name escapes me at the moment; and finally, every land grant public university was required to maintain an active ROTC program.
