Alpha Company Senior Chris Huntington, asked about “A” Company, puts it succinctly: “It is simply the best company.” Newboy se- nior Marc Ely says, “ ‘A Company is Honor Company, and even if I didn’t help make it that, I still am proud to be in it. And why shouldn’t I be proud? It’s my home this year.” “We are perfectly located, close to all major activities,” ad- vises Ivan GreenwelL Patrick Davidson states that “A” is the best company by far, echoed by Mike Hargett’s boast that “A” is sharpest and, “We teach the new- boys in a way that they get it through their heads that we are the baddest, sharpest, and cleanest company.” Pres- cott Jordan feels, “Everyone cares about what goes on. We can always have a good time.” According to Ted Hughes, “Wak- ing up in the morning and walking on carpeting instead of tile floors is a good indication of how great this company is. I believe that the friendships that bond A Company are stronger than in any other company.” Baron Lewis evaluates it: “About any other company, I just say, A nice place to stay, but I wouldn’t want to live there.’ ” Of Alpha Company, Neil Jack- son says, “It’s a real brotherhood.” Staff: Guidon Hayes, front.
