"Bob Anderson is the Co. for Co. G-9 for the 1973-74 school year. He's back from Ranger and Airborne school. A tough, competent guy whom you just end up both respecting and liking no matter how bad your attitude. I'm turning over the scrapbook now. I guess it may develop a different style. (To you who get it going next, I wish you luck and the courage to show your own personality in some thing that is all too many cases a sterile work of pictures, news articles and commentary.) Yeah, that's me there with my bike I got 10,000 miles on it now. I turned from an atheist to a child of God about a year ago--it's wonderful not to be walking alone anymore. Bye! R.E. Hamilton." Spring, 1973
