U.S. Army Europe will commemorate its headquarters building to an important past leader Nov. 14. Lt. Gen. Donald Campbell Jr., USAREUR commander, dedicated the new headquarters building to Lt. Gen. Geoffrey Keyes in a ceremony held at Building 1042 on Clay Kaserne.
Keyes’ ties to the U.S. Army in Europe go back to his command of Seventh Army, which played a significant role in post-war Germany. While the dedication is to commemorate the lasting impression Keyes had on USAREUR and its European allies, it also recognizes a family with a long history of service ranging from the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. Family members who will be in attendance include Dorsey Chescavage, Keyes’ granddaughter; her husband, retired Col. William A. Chescavage; and cousin, William Broughton. The command invites Soldiers, civilians and family members to attend this historic event.
