Electronic Lucky Bag: Third Battalion

Julian Maynard Wright, Jr.

Auburn, New York

One of the most competent men in his company, "Skip" amazed everyone with his sincere friendliness and enthusiasm. He was the Concert Master and Band Librarian of the Midshipmen's Concert Band and a member of the varsity Ocean Sailing Squadron. Sailing was his big sport at USNA, as was always readily evident from the number of sailing pictures posted about his locker and room. Two of the highest points of Skip's sailing career were his participation in the Annapolis-Newport and Bermuda races aboard Navy's schooner "Freedom." Next to sailing, Skip's favorite sports are swimming. skiing, and tennis. He was also a member of his company cross country team, the Musical Club shows, and the Space Club. "Skip" displayed a great love and a solid background in music. His colossal stereo rig and his collection of records could be matched by few midshipmen. "Skip" looks forward to the golden wings of Navy Air.
