Our brother John COLE ('66) and Mickey HEMPHILL ('66) both Vietnam veterans, presided over the ceremony. You Vietnam veterans that have received a quilt, understand that this is not only a gift of recognition of service, but a much delayed "Welcome home." All veterans who have been touched by war, deserve this award. Thank you, Johnny and Mick, for all you do with these presentations. We all are very proud you two. Attaching pictures of yesterday's ceremony. -Karen COLE Correll ('55) *************************************************************** *************************************************************** >>From: Jim "Pitts" ARMSTRONG ('63) Re: Pitts' Favorite Albums Lonnie Mack: WHAM OF THE MEMPHIS MAN Michael Bloomfield: SUPER SESSION Marty Robbins: GUNFGHTER AND TRAIL SONGS/MORE GUNFIGHTER AND TRAIL SONGS on one CD Elvis Presley: ELVIS - w/additional cuts on CD The Fabulous Wailers: LIVE AT THE SPANISH CASTLE w/additional cuts of Louie Louie and Rosalie on CD Paul Butterfield: PAUL BUTTERFIELD BLUE BAND Jr. Walker and the All Stars: SHOTGUN Floyd Cramer: LAST DATE and ON THE REBOUND - one CD Enjoy! -Jim "Pitts" ARMSTRONG ('63) *************************************************************** *************************************************************** >>From: Jim HAMILTON ('63) Re: Back Then Poster This was forwarded to me and I had to laugh. I remember seeing such a poster on the wall of the Lee Nelson's Barber Shop. I imagine there was one at Ganzell's, Johnny Pierce's and Chris the Butcher where the Columbia Commandos got their flat tops. I always wanted a flat top, but alas by hair was too curly, or so my Mother told me. There is no mention of the Waterfall, Princeton, or my all time favorite, the "Wally Cleaver Jelly Roll". http://AlumniSandstorm.com/Xtra/Ham/151117-Haircut_Poster.jpg -jimbeaux -Jim HAMILTON ('63) *************************************************************** *************************************************************** >>From: David RIVERS ('65) Re: Number 32 May I express my congratulations to our own Jim HOUSE ('63; USMC) upon his receipt of a Quilt of Valor on November 16, 2015!
