He continued his career in track at Navy and helped to win many meets. Besides selling Christmas wreaths our "Moon Man" allocates much of his time to the twist, the Everly Brothers, and sleep. But he was always at his best at a party, and there are many that he will never forget. His personality has enabled him to make many friends, and it will ensure him success in the years to come.

Michael Robert Bonsignore

Buffalo, New York

Mike, an Army brat, is easily described for he possesses the qualities which people are apt to note on a first meeting. Seldom without an opinion to voice, Mike has been an influential factor in the settling of many company affairs. Always with a smile and cheerful greeting, Bon has also been a morale booster during those frequent periods of depression. Known as the international lover of the Brigade, Mike has wooed the women from Venezuela to Germany. Being an avid skindiver, Mike's time in Venezuela was spent exploring the terrain of the tepid waters of the Caribbean. Bon, displaying the same qualities on the playing field as in the hall, has always been a mainstay in whatever he participates. Mike is undoubtedly destined for a successful career in whichever service he chooses.
