I took courses every summer, including the summer I went to Fort Riley, and
still had to cram 4 years into 4.5. Not dropping several courses along the way
probably would have helped.

I graduated on time, but had to go to summer school every summer except the
one that I had to go to Army ROTC Camp at Fort Riley my Junior summer to get
it done.
Stayed at A&M for Grad School. Worked for the Dean of the Grad School while
my wife Sandy graduated. Got my MBA.
Then off to Army Field Artillery Basic and then Pershing Missile Office
Course. My first assignment was 56th Field Artillery Brigade 3/84 FA
Battalion in Neckarsulm, Germany. Was the hardest and most fun I had in my
20 years in the Army.
Trying to see if I can come to your mini-reunion in the Fall. Would love to
catch up with you guys.
But the real question is can we beat Alabama in 2021?

OK, so what y'all are saying is that Jeff, Dr. Wright and Danny P., Y'all
fcuked us around and graduated on time!?
Not me! No siree, I stuck with my fish buds and graduated late! Yup, I
crammed 4 years of studies into four and a half. Damn proud of it too.

In the fall of 77 I was attending the Officer Basic Course for the Medical

newlywed before heading to Germany in December.

Wow! I didn't realize that about Cronkite.
What were y'all doing in the fall of 77?
Sticking with your buds like me and graduating in December?
