WAYNE BRANDT PARKER E-2 Woops Ft.

Strange noises and Roombal1 are synonymous with Wayner. We wish him continued success in his career. Sergeant 1 ,' Honor Committee 2,' Spanish Club 4, 3, 2,' Ski Club 3, 2,' Rugby Club 2. LARRY WAYNE PARMENTER B-1 Parameter Murphysboro, Illinois Larry always found the trip to the hall closet shorter and more convenient than the trek to the basement, when stashing away unauthorized articles, unfolded laundry, tennis shoes, ukuleles and so forth. Weill never forget the time the inspecting oflicer was there to point the way. One can never underestimate the value of camouflage and concealment!

The eagles of the Academic Department always hovered close, but John was far too elusive for them. His hail-fellow-well-met atti- tude will be sorely missed, and the absence of his sunny countenance deeply felt. But the Army is gaining an exceptional leader.

PETER JOSEPH OLDFIELD D-1 Ajax Cohasset, Massachusetts Pete was West Point's own Mort Sahl. His work on company signs will always be remembered by the men of D Company. His motto: Spooniness is next to impossible , was probably arrived at through his undying eiorts to keep a good appearance and to maintain a sharp room. The radio he built in our electricity lab was his most outstanding accomplishment. Good luck to a swell guy and a most promising career man.

ROBERT LAIRD ORD, III H-2 Bob Medford Lakes, New Jersey From the backwoods of New Jersey, West Point acquired a tremendous guy and a hard worker in Bob Ord. He has always been an individual, whether on the Football field or diligently practicing his guitar. He is well known throughout the Corps for his dynamic personality and inner-aggressiveness which will carry him to success in all endeavors.

THOMAS FRANK OSTENBERG C-1 Tom Alexandria, Virginia A quick wit, an ability to make others happy and a genuine sincerity characterize this very likeable guy. Tom's ability to do well in anything he undertook, in athletics, academics or extracurricular activities, was a source of inspiration to his classmates. His willingness to lend a helping hand and his ever-smiling friendly face will not soon be forgotten by the men on the Hudson.

EDWARD JOSEPH PABICH H-2 Ed Hartford, Connecticut Having spent some time at college before entering West Point, Ed was a bit surprised with the situation at West Point. It was a long and high climb from the academic battles in plebe math to the Dean's List but Ed made it. His personal interests covered everything from electronics to the function- ing of the stock market. I am sure many a tac's ear has been tuned by the stereo staccato which permeated his ceiling into Regimental Headquarters.
