All the details of the accident are not in yet, but Mr. Trask apparently was enroute to Fripp Island on Highway 21 near Beaufort when his car collided with trees and caught fire Monday evening.

The Corps of Cadets is currently on Thanksgiving furlough. A campus memorial service will be scheduled at a later date.
