Milada was known as Millie most of her life. Her parents immigrated from Czechoslovakia after World War 1.
Her father Albert Vanecek and her mother Maria came from two small villages in Bohemia. We visited both villages and toured her Grandparents home. Milada was born in Manhattan, NY on 7 January 1926, but was raised in East Islip Long Island until age 13 when her father accepted a job in the Cadet Tailor's shop at West Point. They lived in two different houses the last on Mountain Avenue in Highland Falls, NY I met her through Joe Pimento of Highland Falls who arranged for us to meet on the steps of the Cadet Mess Hall, Christmas Day 1943, these steps are now in the middle of the remodeled mess hall leading up to the POOP Deck.
Milada attended High School in Highland Falls and graduated with honors earring a 4 year scholarship to Lady Cliff College. She and Joan Skillen, a classmate in college came up to see myself and a cadet who lived down the hall from me. Milada and I dated until our marriage on 5 June 1946 which has lasted until her death on March 21, 2013.
We were married in the Old Chapel built in 1836 at West Point. The chapel had been moved to the Cemetery, my sister Betty J. Brown played the organ. On the walls are the plaques for the Generals of the Revolutionary War. One of them, Horatio Gates, was an ancestor of my mother, We spent our Honeymoon in Washington DC and Windfall, Indiana.
