Colonel Bob Piper congratulates Colonel Guy Tutwiler upon his induction into the Officers Candidate School's Hall of Fame.   It should be noted that the former Senator of Kansas, Bob Dole, also received this very High Honor for his combat role in the Infantry During WWII.  Colone Tutwiler experienced infantry combat during WWII, the Korean War and Viet Nam.

Here's a letter to Colonel Tutwiler from Captain Jim Wade, who was responsible for providing artillery support to the 4th/47th Battalion. Captain Wade worked hand and glove with Colonel T and his Rifle Company Commanders in the field. This officer's role was obviously extremely essential and vital to the well being and success of all 4th/47th Infantry Troopers!
