Thomas Andrew Zwoifer Wood Dale, Illinois Naval Architecture Nuclear Power — Submarines Tom Z-MAN Zwoifer. the last man in the class. Tom, get that dressing out of your inbox. Tom. What DID you do at Halsey? Oh, some of this, some of that. Sometimes known as Off-Color King, it wasn ' t at all related to the way that he ate, which would make a praying mantis proud. Tom will always be remembered here in Second Company as a founding father of the Japanese Monument Club, as well as for his outstanding performance as Golden Glove Third Baseman. Tom is truly dedicated, one of the very few remaining N. ' SiRCs. Tom, the fleet awaits you, and we know you are ready! WL RD Andrew Bowman Barker Arab. Alabama English Supply Corps Andrew came to the Academy with slightly different ideas than the rest of us. He thought that it was a country club college with a little bit of military thrown in. He survived 15th Co. plebe year, despite his command appearance at Ac Boards. Drew came to Third and created an Ice-box on 1-0 that was ignored for months by the company officer. Second class summer found him adjutant for Group 12. where he led by example with his disregard for ac- countability. He was only seen in P-Cola when he absolutely had to be there. He stayed, miraculously (unexplainably?). and committed for two more years of trying academics. He missed the Ring Dance for a cruise to Australia, but his date understood, and she didn ' t have to return her DDW ' s. First class year saw him have a few problems with driving his car. I don ' t think the heavy stuff is gonna come down for quite some time, Drewsome said. But it did, and he lost Spring Break, Athens Bound. CHG PEP Bruce Scott Bennett Maple Shades. New Jersey General Engineering U.S. Marine Corps Daroose was a Godsend to his two roommates; he saved them from the BM3. His pencil-neck frame earned him nicknames: Bruiser, Bubba. Norman, Grossberger, as well as a starting position on the varsity offensive line. He always kept abreast of the time, and it was well known that everything was proportional. Brother B was a Marine ' s Marine, and was often heard shouting Arf! or I did something stupid. He had two pet Doberman ' s which were kept in the hall nightly. As time progressed, he found that football am his life. His favorite quote was — -! which he serenaded to the company on many occasions. First class year he acquired the sporty fishbpwl, a fine machine that killed the ladies. In Daytona, he was the big stud, and in Australia he met his long lost Auntie May. We are quite sure that the Corps will choose to send Brutonomus to any hotspot in the world, so that he may put his diplomatic charm to work. CHG 432

Bui why take 21 hours second semester 1 c year? He ' s really too kind, but 1 guess he won ' t be loaning his car to bert again. Old fashioned, he lives in a log cabin, is infatuated with animals (gerbils?), and even his music says he should have been born 20 years earlier somewhere near Rudy ' s or a disco. ■ The Good Feeling music of the Big Chill era.

Thanks for the fry. SDS Alan Wilford Van Loon Hermanlown, Minnesota Computer Science Surface Warfare Computer wizard who crusaded against the Lynch-Demon, the Scharf-monster and the worm to become the savior of our weekend liberty. Printed everyone ' s papers. Despite being Christian music DJ for WRNV, and wearing new grooves in his Amy Grant records, still finds I Spit on Your Grave to be the greatest movie of all time. Reads only Mack Bolan one man against the world. Guess he needed that TV, er, computer monitor, to watch the Twins win the World Series. We didn ' t hear the end of that for a while. Great NAVTAG plotter; do they have radar on your new ship, Al? Engaged for three years. Always a Marine at heart. Yes, I had to come all the way from MN to USNA to find what I needed, but once I found it, 1 never let it go. People said I would never make it into USNA, and then said 1 would never make it. Well, I am here, and I made it, and 1 owe it to support from those same people who said I wouldn ' t make it. Thanks M V SK, AVL Jeffrey Robert Williams Port Jefferson, New York Mechanical Engineering Nuclear Power — Submarines Jeff, the biggest slouch around is, as a SENIOR, the only midshipman STILL boycotting the chickwich. To him every girl was the most beautiful girl in the worid, but that may just show his kindheartedness. Speaking of kindheartedness, it can be seen by the fact that he even knew one of his teacher ' s names, but that was the one that he stayed up all night for to do three homework problems. He was shy about video cameras; ' •Mom, that ' s how we say hi. Bladah-bladah at 000 090 270 relative! The one wildman of the company, he was guest singer for some band in Rye, New York, probably while cheering for his favonte team, the mighty METS! If you see him, ask him about his Halloween Ritual, or Toy Master (noses and masks). Good Luck, Jeff, we ' ll remember you always as one of the boys. AVL Anthone Raynell Wright Lackawanna. New York Economics U. S. Marine Corps Hey! ' Toine! Keep your hands to yourself Anthone has his own reserved seat in the wardroom: •Can I take that chair with me? Here we have, fresh from Second Company, the first Nuclear Tank Driver! He was heavy into 1 50 ' s football, but was the only one on the team that had to gain weight for weigh-ins. Speaking of 1 50 ' s, for some reason he couldn ' t take the pressure of intramurals. yet he managed to be a 1 50 ' s Star. Love that Colt .45. The Ladies call me Mr. Right. Anthone was the only man in the company with one leg and two toothpicks! Watch out Marines, you ' ve got one heck of a great guy coming your way! AVL 431

Joseph Mateo Brinkman Port Orchard. H ashinglon Computer Science Surface Warfare Joe ' s plebe year was spent getting paid to party on more week- ends each semester than our youngsters were even allowed to sign up for. All of that just for an occasional round of debate. .Although it started out as a means of putting up with plebe year, it became a necessity for dealing with youngster (financial) depression. It was during this year that Joe learned the fundamentals of financial disaster, something he would retain, and eventually perfect. Living in the back shaft, unnoticed. Joe became delinquent beyond ad- min conduct. After a close call 2 c year. Joe spent 1 c year with the rest of us. reminiscing about the good old days. Watching Joe drop everything in my room, mailing all our luggage to con a ride on a MAC night, losing Joe somewhere in Iowa, finding him at my house the next day. all-night computer jam sessions . . . that ' s what they were with Joe, the good old days. MD Chessley Dion Cornett Hebron. Kentucky Electrical Engineering Nuclear Power — Submarines Dion foot-in-the-door Cornett came to us from the bluegrass state of Kentucky, land of beautiful horses and fast women, neither of which Dion partook of (much). Instead, he was quite content to fester in the EE labs with the rest of his double-E buds. Emerging pale and beady-eyed from the bowels of Michelson, Dion expressed his creative side in many ways and to many people . . . Dion also rowed crew and rolled in casually late from the ' Vous, earning a different color N in each case. We thank Dion for the many hours we enjoyed on his sturdy tri-hull, Les Parte ' , and pity the poor fool who actually believes it ' s a sturdy tn-hull and buys it. Unfortunately, his greed overcame him, and he and his new boat will find a home at nuke school in Orlando — but Bill has no qualms. Dion was a level-headed guy, and we wish him the best of luck, tp.bm.ps.mg know your password: DCLDB. TP Jimmy Dean Cox Centerville, Georgia General Science Naval Aviation I am writing this to the memory of my father and mother, who departed from my life on 8 Januar 1 98 1 . It was their strength that helped me through the years that followed. My parents gave me so much it would be impossible to ever repay them. If 1 could have just one wish in life, it would be to have them with me on graduation day. However, the memory of my parents will follow me through the rest of my life, and they will always hold a place in my heart Love always, Jim ! In memory of Earl and Margaret Cox. JDC John Calvin Dupree Alexandria. Virginia Physical Science Surface Warfare JD took the NAPS pipeline and worked hard to get there. He had quite the temper youngster year — soap can be a lethal weapon. But that wasn ' t the end. as Truman ' s precious tiger will tell ■ ■. ■ a 51 offense resulted. Maddog John tned boxing, a sport in which he invented a new style — lead with the head, jab with the left, lead with the head. Later, he decided to add to the athletic challenge at Navy by running the mile in hightops. John ' s favorite phrase became Yer lookin ' just like a hog, which earned him the nickmname FP. Some famous quotes are: Meeting, what meet- ing? and You make me feel like a king. JD had such a zest for academics he spent three summers here excelling, in addition to his eight-hours a day study habits. Unlike the rest of the wardroom rats, the only time he was in the wardroom was for meetings. John will pursue excellence on the waves, rather than in the mud: a blessing in disguise. PEP 433 - L
