RIP

To a fellow Alumni. I followed him by a few years to the school and the ROTC Corps of Cadets.

I once read he spoke fluent Yiddish and learned by working in a mom-pop hardware store on Webster Ave. He would sometimes eavesdrop by some Yiddish speaking couple and report back their convo of what they're interested in.
As top man in uniform he once said, "I really could go for some White Castle now".
General, you were truly a man of the people. R.I.P.

New, I recently lost a friend who was the last captain of the CCNY basketball team under Nat Holman.
His name was Marty Groveman, with the sweet, soft, left-handed jumper. Another terrific guy who cared about others.

I spoke to one of my college friends last Sunday, and he remembered Powell stopping by our table in the City College cafeteria and talking with me.
I hadn't remembered that, but it made an impression on my friend that Powell and I were both wearing our uniforms, and we were the only two who were.
