Peter A. Peyser
Peter A. Peyser (September 7, 1921 – October 9, 2014) was a United States Representative from New York, serving from 1971 to 1977 as a Republican and from 1979 to 1983 as a Democrat.
==Early life==
Peyser was born in Cedarhurst, Long Island and grew up there and in Manhattan. He graduated from Dwight Preparatory School in New York and entered Colgate University in the fall of 1939 as a member of the class of 1943. As with many schools at that time, Colgate offered its students the opportunity to accelerate their studies to facilitate their enlistment in the military. Peyser graduated from Colgate in December 1942 and enlisted in the U.S. Army as a private in 1943.
Peyser entered the European theater about three months after D-Day. He served in the infantry as a "replacement" (i.e. assigned to a specific unit only after arrival in the theater to fill in ranks depleted by casualties).
He saw action with the 99th Infantry Division in the Battle of the Bulge, Remagen Bridge Engagement and Huertgen Forest. After V-E Day, Sergeant Peyser participated in the occupation of a small town in Germany. He was discharged in 1946 and accepted a commission as second lieutenant with the Seventh Regiment of the New York National Guard, and later held the rank of captain. Returning to New York, Peyser worked for the Manhattan Life insurance company in the agency managed by his father, Percy A. Peyser. A few years later, he joined the Mutual of New York life insurance company as an agent. He later managed offices in White Plains, New York and Manhattan.
