i 1 KV ff' E Thomas M. Seel Tom Jamaica, N.Y. Marine Engineering Through Tom's four years at the Academy he has continually demon- strated the qualities of a capable leader. As a freshman Tom set his goals high and as a member of the cross country and track teams showed enthusiasm and. determination that ran true throughout his four years. A gung-ho member of the Yacht Club, Tom's love and knowledge of sailing brought him the coveted position of Commodore of the Yacht Club and Skipper of the Windrose in his senior year. In many tight spots while his crew stood frozen in panic it was always a comfort to see the cool, calm, collected, skipper standing at the helm screaming orders at the top of his lungs. A keen knowledge of the engine room and practical seamanship make Tom one of the most well rounded mariners in the class. Best of luck Tom. We're sure youill be a credit to the company of your choice.
