First row left:  Chuck Stalnaker
2nd from left:  Terry Lynn Morrow

Me and my best buddy Terry Lynn Morrow graduating SINS class and both headed to the Bowditch.  He went UDT/SEALS and would have graduated but his girlfriend said 'NO WAY'.  I am in the front row left and he is to my right next to me.  Best bud ever, he was a lumberjack from Oregon.  We took SCUBA lessons together; you should have seen him and me on a Kawasaki 750 with full SCUBA gear and two 3000 PSI tanks!
