Brigadier General William H. Triplett, m.d. The class of ' 59 wishes to express their indebtedness, appreciation and gratitude to Dr. Wilham H. Triplett, for his constant devotion and concern for the welfare of our institution. After graduating in 1911, Dr. Triplett showed an interest in military medicine, serving actively in the Maryland National Guard, and as a medical officer in World War I. After the war he became one of the senior officers in the 104th Medical Regiment. During World War II he assumed command of the 104th Medical Regiment with the rank of Colonel and served both in the United States and overseas. After retiring in 1944 he continued to be active in fraternal and civic affairs as well as devoting a large part of his time to the welfare of the School of Medicine and in particular the Medical Alumni Association. Dr. Triplett has worked diligently to build a strong professional and fraternal bond between the Alumni Association and the Faculty. He has been instrumental in organizing alumni gatherings at various meetings held throughout the United States, and has sought continually to foster a bet- ter understanding between alumni and students. The University of Maryland is indeed fortunate to have Dr. Triplett, a physician, soldier and friend, as one of the alumni of this institution.
