Hey What Is This... The ICU?
Teddy Howell getting Ochodnicky and Rob Peterson’s autograph.
And what is this leg breaking thing...? First Fitzpatrick then Teddy.
That's a hell of’va way to get out of doing duty...!

Bob Reed Where Ya Goin’
Robert Reed of the Launching area, one of Alabama's favorite sons.

George Ochodnicky
The one and only George Ochodnicky. He pronounced it Aha ka - nicky. Sadly George, from Michigan, died at the early age of 32. Not sure why.
George was a popular guy and well liked...!

Staff Meeting
This is a group of guys from the “BEST” end of the third floor (Over the Mess Hall) planning their later weekend pass activities.
They are, from left to right and back around to front: on the bunk are Phillip Kirkland and Lionel Gonzales, against the wall is Jerry Merrick, then Teddy Howell, and finally I think the guy hamming it up for the camera is Donald Ledoux.

Whoa...! This Group Looks Dangerous
In the back row, left to right are:
“Swede” Hanson, T.V. “Mad Dog” Hall, “Fatty D” DeGrado, “Fighter” Kirkland, “Cooky” Jones, with Calvin Ramsey in front of him.
Sitting on the footlocker, left to right are: “Mac” Maclemore, Ira Perdue, and “The Kid” Wilkins.
This photo taken August 1961.

OK Line up...
In front is Jim Di Tursi, to his left is John Malcome, in the middle is Delbert Aldridge, and to his right is Jim Frazier.
The G.I. in the very back trying to stick his nose into the photo is not identified, but to me it looks like Ralph Ellet.
In the barracks January 1961.
