One of the oldest members of our class, Dave hails from Lincoln, Rhode Island. Upon graduating from high school he spent three years at Phillips Exeter Academy, Yale, and the Naval Academy Prep School, respectively, before settling down on the banks of the Severn. All of this previous schooling, aided him no end in his first two years at Navy, during which time his name graced the Superintendent’s List. But it was not all study for Dave, in that many an hour was spent on the river with the Plebe and varsity Crew while Plebe swimming and company cross country and field ball rounded out his time in the athletic field during the off season. Working towards a Foreign Languages major, Dave carried overload courses in German and Russian, supplementing his class room work with active participation in these language clubs. Not to be contained with personal interests only, he also dedicated two years’ work as Lucky Bag representative. Dave is looking forward to joining the ranks of Naval Aviation on graduation.
