I finally got my Summer 2006 issue of the VMI Alumni Review this weekend. In the “Alumni News” section there is an advertisement for Maj Michael P. Solovey USA, Class of 1996. Maj Solovey has produced a print to honor VMI alumni serving in the Global War on Terrorism. It’s called “Thus Ever To Tyrants”.
Maj Solovey will be donating a framed print to VMI. More importantly, the proceeds from the sales will fund a bronze plaque at the Institute honoring Institute alumni killed in the War on Terror.
For those of you who are not VMI alumni, visit the rest of Maj Solovey’s website. There are a variety of works on his website, and he does private commissions for units and private parties.
John Says: We’ve lost 10 VMI alumni on the field of honor since September 11th. Sgt. Ryan Doltz was a friend, but as Col P, Lightning, Charlie, and myself will tell you, all 10 were our brothers.
