Helping to prepare this page for the Class of '46, I was struck by the mirror symmetry of it all. I am Class of 64, Rollin was the class of 46. He died in freezing, sub-zero winmter. Our class dead were at places like Dak-To in the Vietnamese Highlands, in sweltering jungles. He died, I lived. Fate's pendulum swings a wide swath for the Long Gray Line. May this page, and others for your class, chisel in the new stone of the internet, a record of the sacrifices and lives.. and deaths, of those to whom America owes a great debt. In awe, Jack Price, '64 |
