Michael J. Reid Mike Thorndike, Maine Marine Engineering And then there was the farm boy from Stickville, Maine, who came to M.M.A. looking for the leisurely campus life. Mike, the born lady killer, soon found it. He could always be seen out on the bay sailing with a crew of five or six friends. Our Second Battalion Yo-Yo, Mike was always in a pair of cut-offs in the Search of bennies, especially on Wed- nesday afternoons. During hunting season, Mike, the Aca- demy guide, was always in the thick of the shooting. Say-how's that bullet you stopped with your foot your senior year? A truly fine person and capable engi- neer, we wish you a happy and suc- cessful future. Activities, Intramurals 1,2, Yeoman 1,2,3,4, Second Batt.
