baat Roldan honared eau! respected Py dier: of the facully......- GENERAL VINCENT P. BREEN We are proud to dedicate the 1958 Technician to General Vincent P. Breen, heroic soldier, honored and respected member of the faculty of Boston Technical High School for the past thirty years. During this period, he has been known as the In- structor in Military Drill. Yet, few are aware that hiding under the general's commanding exterior there is a soul of humility for General Breen’s record in the U.S. Army is one of glory and honor. He bears many battle scars — constant reminders of war and its horrors. For outstanding bravery in the First World War during the battle of Bois Belleau, he was promoted on the field to the rank of captain, a highly unusual procedure. During this encounter, he was wounded twice in one day — at 11:30 and again at 4:30. Still, without regard for his personal suffering, he courageously continued to lead his men this same day into furious battle. For this he was later awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. His heroic career through two world wars cul- minated in the honored rank of general. If and when his army life is mentioned, he modestly refers to the bravery of his war buddies. Mr. Holland is one of his best friends and had a brother under his command in the First World War and tells us that of the 26,000 men for which he was responsible, none was more courageous than the general. It’s a surprising contrast between the thanks we expect for our small deeds and the reserve of a man who risked his life many times for his country. General Breen, with this dedication we give you our very best wishes for continued good health and the hope that all of us may acquire your character and virtues. We salute you, Gen- eral Vincent P Ben!
