Il guess the whole thing is water

thing to do is to forget and start
from scratch.
We were all pretty heart broken
when we learned that we had to
leave the Point. All of us wanted
to graduate. Football was second

concerned.
Al Pollard (Reich's room
mate) wasn't concerned where he

was first or 50th. He needed help
and all the fellows helped one
another because no one wanted to

What l was doing I though was
right. He was my roommate and
loyalty to my friends meant a
great deal. In my home training
I was taught by my parents to be
loyal.
You can't turn in some one to

You naturally help your own
roommate. He's your buddy.

There is no degree of guilt under

Every one makes a mistake dur

The sentiment expressed by the
fellows involved is that they
wouldn't return to the academy if
the opportunity was there.
You can't pinpoint where this
(affair) started. I am not allowed
to discuss the case and couldn't
