Miscellaneous trivia: John and I on the football team our Jr year. We got to talking about college and he showed me the catalogs for 3-4 schools, to include the Naval Academy and West Point. I likely would not have known about the possibility had it not been for John. My plan at that point was to join the Army (or Navy), then go to college on the GI Bill.
