AMERICAN FIELD ERVICE Guillermo Oliveros - U.S.A., Philip Welch, Japan Ha sido para mi una experien- cia maravillosa haber sido un estu- diante en Amity. Siempre he en- contrado algo nuevo e interesante que conocer es esta comunidad estaudinense. Mediante la con- vivencia he llegado a adquirir gran conocimiento y entendi- miento de sus constumbres y de su vida en general. Estoy muy contento de contribuir a la amis- tad entre nuestras dos naciones que espero perdure para siempre. It has been a marvelous experi- ence for me to be a student at Amity. I have always found something new and interesting to learn about this American community. Through living here every day,I have been able to acquire a great knowledge and understanding of its customs and of its life in general. I am very happy to contribute to the friend- ship between our two nations, which I hope will continue for- ever. BOPPY rwkoe 1 if u,:'!,x.ap'i1-sv faire 's s: 'w'u: V2 1 .1 assvqt -ts as .4 '- 'ii shing- This summer has been by far the most interesting of my life. I learned many things about Japan, particularly that America and ,Ia- pan can be alike and very different at the same time. Young people our age seem to have something in common all over the world. The unanimous decision of my forty- eight fellow Americans and me is that A.F.S. is just the greatest pro- gram ever invented. I know I will remember my family and home in Tokyo for the rest of my life. Phil Jeanne Moore - Germany It was not an easy decision to go to a foreign country and to a strange family. Jeanne has been received into Dr. Bernhardt Brinkmann's family as a daughter and as a sister to his own six children. ,Ieanne's father, Cdr. Patrick Moore, and her foster father, Dr. Brinkmann, served in their countries' Navies during World War II on opposite sides. Both men wish to show their children that this way is the best way - to make a connection be- tween them, to have peace in the world. Dr. Brink- mann wishes to show his children that an American girl thinks and lives in the same way as they - and he Wishes to give an American girl the experi- ence to see that they have the same concept of life as her parents in America. Mrs. Patrick Moore
