Four roommates at the NAS Whiting BOQ parking lot. The year 1969. We are just back from some event that required our dress white uniforms, less swords. It might have been a change of command ceremony, I can't remember. We are standing in front of Bill McClelland's snazzy red convertible. He is the photographer. Left to right, Nick Witzell, Terry Waldbeesser and Joe Schrock. We all started our training in AOC Class 28-1968 in Pensacola Fl. Here we are still together during basic training. All of us got our wings. I stayed in contact with Bill into the 90s but lost contact with Terry and Joe during advanced training. If any Shorpy fan knows anymore about them, I would love to hear it.
