Twenty-eight THE LAWRENCIAN— 1947 Veterans of the Class of 1947 VETERANS Left to right : Bill Lopes, Arthur Williams, Horace Medeiros, Donald Beauchemin. WILLIAM LOPES William Lopes, former Seaman first-class of the Navy, also returned to school for his di- ploma. He plans to go to Springfield College to study physical education on the G. I. plan. Bill was in the Navy a year and a half and spent this time in the Asiatic-Pacific. When asked to make a statement, Bill declared, China fascinated me. ARTHUR WILLIAMS Arthur Williams, who joined the Navy in 1945, is another of the veterans who are back in school to get their diplomas. Arthur was in the Navy twenty-three months and six days on the USS Dawson. He served in the Pacific Theatre and was in the first convoy to reach Japan. His reaction to the first city he saw was, It was dirtier than even Manila.” Arthur liked the navy and plans to go to Wentworth on the G. I. plan when he finishes school. LESTER SILVA Lester Silva is also back to finish school after having been in the Navy Seabees for fif- teen months. He left school in 1945 and is now catching up on his lost schooling. While in the seabees, Lester spent most of his time in the Asiatic-Pacific Theatre on Guam. Here he took care of the airfields. Lester is still undecided as to what he will do when he graduates. HORACE MEDEIROS Horace Medeiros, former Seaman second- class of the Navy, is one of the five ex-G. I.’s who have returned to finish school. After re- ceiving his diploma, Horace plans to take ad- vantage of the G. I. plan and further his education. Horace left school in 1945 to join the Navy where he spent twenty-one months on active duty in the Atlantic and Pacific Theatres. He spent two months of this at the North Pole testing navy equipment. Accord- ing to Horace, the temperature often ranged from 30 to 60 degrees below zero and his im- pression of the North Pole was All I saw was icebergs!” His stay in the Navy was spent on the USS Midway and he said, The Navy was fine, but it certainly has its faults.” DONALD BEAUCHEMIN Another member of the senior class who has returned to complete his education after having been in the service is Donald Shorty Beauche- min. Shorty was a seaman first class in the navy on Landing Craft for Flotilla Flagship. He served sixteen months in the Asiatic-Pacific theatre where he went through two tropical typhoons. When asked to give his opinion of the navy he answered, I had a heck of a good time.” Shorty hasn’t yet decided what he will do when he graduates.
