==Personal Life== Clay married Marjorie McKeown in 1918, a childhood friend from Georgia, and they had two sons, Lucius D. Clay Jr. and Frank B. Clay, both of whom became Army generals. Known for his blunt, decisive demeanor, Clay was also deeply loyal, maintaining lifelong friendships with Eisenhower and McCloy. He enjoyed golf, fishing, and reading history, often retreating to his Cape Cod home. His Southern roots and military ethos shaped his conservative worldview, though he supported civil rights reforms late in life, per Lucius D. Clay: An American Life.
