James William Corbett Jim Pygmy Otter Creek, Maine Marine Engineering Jim ventured to MMA from a small town on Mount Desert Island, but didn't take him very long to catch on to the military life. Who else would think of spending Christmas and New Year's leave on campus? It must have been sheer de- votion to the corps. As a member of the Academy Band for three years, Jim proved himself an asset with his trumpet. Always ready for a good time, Jim n became a member of the cannon liber- ators in the fall of his senior year. Whenever the time for liberty drew near, Jim could always be seen heading for Bar Harbor and that special someone. How- ever, hardly an Academy function went by that Jim and that same someone did- n't attend. A fine student and great friend, we Wish you the best of luck, Jim. Activities, Band 1,3,4.
