Thomas Walsh

2005

I retired as Chief of Manufacturing from the Watervliet Arsenal and during that time I was responsible for the production of cannon and mortars for the United States Army and its allies.

After retiring from the Arsenal, I worked for five years at the Rensselaer County Sheriff’s Department. I was elected for two terms as Supervisor to the Town of Brunswick.. I was later elected to four terms as a Rensselaer County Legislator, which I am presently serving. Retired as a Lieutenant Colonel after twenty-eight years from the New York Army National Guard.

I married the former Diane Gailey and together we have five children and ten grandchildren and one
great grand child.
I am a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Elks, the Military Officers Association, the 210th Armored Association, and the Rensselaer County Soil and Water Conservation Board.

I collect coins and guns.

My favorite THS memory is meeting my wife in between classes.
