The Office of the President was sad to learn of the death of Ted
Westhousing today, a colonel in the U.S. Army in Iraq. In his memory,
the flag will fly at half-staff tomorrow, June 7, 2005. His former
professor at Emory, Dr. Donald Verene, shared the following information
with me by phone today:

Ted Westhousing:
Masters Degree in Philosophy from Emory
Faculty at West Point
Returned to Emory on leave to complete his Ph.D. in Philosophy in 2003.
Volunteered for a 6-month appointment in Iraq starting January 2005.
Killed two days ago.
