Raymond Dorsey Edwards completed his schooling at Annapolis in 1921, and before his 32 years in the Navy was completed, did in fact, become a Rear Admiral!! He took part in the invasion of North Africa in World War II, was commander of the Administrative Mine Force in the Pacific and later commanded all mine warfare in the Pacific. He was a professor of Naval Science at Marquette University. He died January 12, 1968 in Lake Bluff, Illinois. A success story from one of Higbee's own! Is anyone else familiar with this family? Alice in Arizona Friday, 16 July 1915--Raymond Edwards, one of Higbee's most promising young men, was this week appointed to a cadetship at Annapolis by Congressman Rucker, and if he can pass the educational and physical examination, of which there is no fear among those who know him, he will enter Uncle Sam's famous naval school next year. He will take no changes on falling down on his examination and will put in all his spare time digging into text books. that he may come out of the school with highest honors and in time plow the main as an admiral, is the wish of The NEWS.
