DALE HALLETT wrote on March 9, 2010 CITY AND STATE: UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FRIEND OF VETERAN Comments: My name is Dale Hallett and I worked with Bob Omick at the same historic sight for several seasons. I was doing a little research on Bob's Unit and thought I'd pass on his obituary. Bob was like a second grandfather to me. He was quite the character and his mind was razor sharp even in his seventies. He told some stories of Korea and one day I brought in my slide projector to look at about 50 slides he had taken during the war. I wish I had scanned them. If you have any picture files of Bob I'd love to see them. Thanks, Dale Hallett Las Cruces Sun News 25 Nov 2006 Robert Edwin Omick, 76, passed away on Tuesday, November 21, 2006 in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Bob was born on May 31, 1930 in Chicago, IL. He served as an artillery sergeant in the Korean War. After graduating from Central College in Pella, IA, he went on to earn a PhD in English Literature from the University of Iowa in 1966. During his career, he taught at the University of Iowa, Indiana State University and served as Dean of the College of Arts and Letters at Western New Mexico University. He also loved drama, was an outstanding actor, and directed and starred in many plays. In retirement he traveled often, volunteering in national and state parks in Missouri and New Mexico. He was a man of uncommon wit, humor and insight and is deeply missed by his family and friends. Keywords:

Originally from Brooklyn, NY, he now lives in Norfolk, VA. He was in Korea from mid 1950 through late 1951. I'm writing this because he still has trouble turning on his computer! He plans to attend a reunion in asheville, NC this Sept. The only other unit member that I remember is the late John Mills. I seem to recall that his CO was then Capt. Mason J. Young. We saw Col Young's photo in the NY Daily News on his own son's graduation from the Point. My Dad, who would really like to hear from his cronies, can be reached through me at totheab@msn.com Keywords:
