INSIGNIA CONTEST OPENS
Capt. Hurley Traded B.S. Degree for G.I. Way of Life in '42

One officer at Bradley Field who may benefit by the interrupted schooling" clause of the G.I. Bill of Rights is Capt. Nicholas N. Hurley, Assistant Base Administrative h. spector, whose ecorts toward re- ceiving a B.S. degree were halted by his country's call to service.
 Born in the favorite city of Brad leyites, Hartford, on 3 October 1918, the Captain attended the Weaver High School of that city and upon graduation entered Trim ity College, Hartford. During his sophomore year at Trinity he was awarded Scholarship by the col lege but his entry into service cut short his chance to utilize the award. While at college Captain Hurley specialized in subjects that would gain him the B.S. degree and participated in athletics, although he claims this was strictly hobby with no records shattered and no major letters.
 On 5 January 1942, after finish ing three and one-half years at Trinity, the Captain answered bis country's summons and left Hart ford for Fort Devens, Massachu- setts, where, after the usual pro- cessing, he was shipped to Jeffer- son Barracks, Missouri, for Air Corps basic training. A few months later he was heading further west to William Field near Phoenix, Arizona, where he was clerk in the Personnel Section of Base Headquarters and awarded the two stripes of corporal.
