  • I think watermelon dude was 12th Corps, name escapes me. John?

  • Some of my happiest years and some of the best people on the planet! I do remember how cold it was that day! and how cold that water was, but so much fun!

  • I am not really sure who the hot guy is with the watermelon.  He looks vaguley familiar though!

     

     

     

     

  • Ha, ha, love that you can toot your own horn, John!  Who indeed!

    That was fun, and yes, John, that is what I remember about my time in the Corps.

    If this was a cult, it was the most fun I ever had!

     

  • Who's the Hot guy with the watermelon?

  • Yes that looks like Cora Mae.

  • Was the silver haired lady on JAL's left named Cora Peters?  Thanks Betsy, I am so thankful for the memories.

  • And we had such a terrible time in the oppressive Way Corps cult, brainwashed and treated like slaves.... NOT.

    Regardless, it was fun times like these that I most fondly remember. And there were a lot of them both organized and spontaneous, both on campus and off campus.

    Great people and great fun. If it was a cult it was a fun one for the most part.
