John Sheridan McDonald

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by George Kennebeck on January 8, 2004:

After pilot training, John and I reported to our first assignment as fighter pilots flying F-86's. We formed a new squadron and had only a few airplanes to fly. When Thanksgiving came John, Betty, Jan and I shared together. We didn't have anything fancy, but had a wonderful time together. One weekend John and I flew up to Marquette Michigan and spent the night. We went to town only to find out they roll up the sidewalks at 6pm on Saturday nights up there. Those are fine memories of my time with a special classmate. Keep your mach up. George Kennebeck
