LTG William P. Yarborough

It is sad to report that at approximately 11:30 hrs., December 6, 2005, LTG (R) William P. Yarborough passed away. He wanted to let everyone who sent him cards and letters, to know, that he really appreciated receiving them.

RIP Sir.

It is sad seeing the members of the greatest generation pass from this life to the next. General Yarborough had a remarkable career and was a soldier's soldier. His contribution to the US Army will never be forgotten and will be his lasting legacy. He has earned his rest.
