I never met Captain Glaser but he was the Captain of the Horne when I served on her. during that time I was in the hospital in Japan and he wrote my wife and told her I was alright and would return home soon and he arranged my return home. I was very grateful for that. He was a great man and my condolences to his family.

To Mrs. Glaser and the entire Glaser family:
Prompted by a discussion with an old shipmate, I googled Captain Glaser's name on a whim. I was deeply saddened to find his obituary.
It was a great privilege and honor to have served under your husband and father in USS HORNE (DLG-30) during the period 1970-71. Those days were among the happiest days in my life, in no small measure due to Captain Glaser's guidance, leadership, and friendship. I loved the "old man", and tonight I am shedding abundant tears.
Godspeed, Bill.
