Jody Drill Team

In 1970 and 1971, I was on the Jody Drill Team at Lowery AFB, outside of Denver ... joined it because I didn't want the hassle of inspections and marching to class ... still have my blue and white "rope" I wore to distinguish myself as a member of a special group.  

Remember names like Zac Richardson (?), and my room-mates "Joe Nicoletti and Mickey Donnelly".

Loved it ... loved the travel and competition.  Will post pictures of different people whenever I get them:

Here we are marching in early 1971 ... I think that's our commander "Zac" (back to you) at the time:




"Gomer" Tim Curran (left) and Commander Jon Stalnaker (center).  On the right is a guy who I think was named "Beasley"

Found a picture of me

Here is a picture of Ed Coleman (on the left) and Joe Nicoletti (my room mate) on the right:


My other room mate, Mickey Donnelly:
