William Tuttle memory for 2024 For those at the United States Military Academy, and those wearing a military uniform, and for all military of all ranks, General William G. T. Tuttle was a soldier´s soldier. For those at the academy, I wish you could have known him as he visited you, ate with you and guided you. And for those who knew him in his world of retirement from the military, he became a mentor, a teacher, and a friend. I knew him in both worlds. My wife, Elizabeth, knew him simply...

I interviewed General Tuttle in 2005 in Alaska. The interview lasted months as we sat and reviewed his book, Defense Logistics for the 21st Century. He signed it, "To Oliver, with great respect and admiration for your many contributions to defense logistics. Bill Tuttle, October 2005" His book is full of underlined passages that are still being used in my logistics courses for military students at American Military University. He is a great man, leader, innovator. And to his super...

We had the honor of working for him at Ft Lee, but more importantly, working with "Bill" in Alaska. Alaska people became friends with him and he with them. We shall share stories of his favorite foods I. Alaska when we get the chance to be again with Helen, and the children. All our love, Oliver and Elizabeth Hedgepeth. [email protected]

General and Mrs. Tuttle and their entire family were absolutely the greatest people to
be around. General Tuttle took great care to insure all the personnel working for him were well cared for. Mrs. Tuttle always took a personal interest in all of those same people both the employees and their families. General Tuttle was absolutely the very best as a soldier, a commander, a neighbor, a friend and any way else you want to identify him. His family, Mrs. Tuttle, Lynn , Bob and Jonathan...

I had the pleasure of being a young man on Col Tuttle's staff with HQ 3rd Armored Division in Frankfurt. I met his wonderful family and was treated with the kindness that I remembered from home. When the Colonel moved to the command of the 503rd S&T Battalion he arranged my transfer to that headquarters and helped me avoid some unpleasantness by doing so. I was shaped by his genuine concern for the young people he was surrounded by and am grateful for the singular attention he blessed me...

Anne and I are so sorry and saddened by the news of General Tuttle's passing. He was a giant of a man and leader whose handprints were all over my life and success--and so many more in the military and business professions. He cast a very wide shadow, indeed. Our deepest and most sincere sympathy to Helen and family in their enormous loss.

I was saddened to hear about Mr. Tuttle's death. It sounds like he had quite a distinguished career in the Army. I had a childhood friend named Lynn Tuttle and wondered if this was her daddy. If so, hello Lynn after all these years.

He was a great boss and a good man. I was his Special Assistant for Joint Service Activities during the period 1989 until I retired in August 1990.
Rest in Peace.
