First of all, I hope you and your family are all staying
well, had a nice Thanksgiving, looking forward to the upcoming Holidays
and looking forward to good things happening in 2026.
Well it's time once again for your Friendly Webmaster to bug you for providing
some input to the Class of '68 website. When you go to www.usafa68.org,
your web browser may tell you that the site is "Not secure".
That is true, however since you cannot upload/send information to the
site or make any changes to the site - the warning can be ignored.
If you compose a Christmas letter for the Holidays - please email me a
copy for sharing with your Classmates - you can see current and past letters
from the past 18 years here.
The In Memoriam
pages on our website receives my special attention. I create a page for
every deceased Classmate as soon as I learn of a death. Please note that
the GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN section in Checkpoints no longer
contains memorial articles/obituaries for individuals. For these deceased
Classmates (David Stewart, John
Watkins, Davis Guy McAdory, Bill
Gregory, Bob Pulver, Jocko
Hayden, Van Perroy, John
Malley, Clark Mobley, Larry
Funk, Mac Phillips
and Dick Engel) there
is little information on the website - so, if you have information or
a story to share, please email it to me to post on the classmate's page.
Also, if you learn of the death of a Classmate, please do not assume that
it was reported - let the AoG
and/or me know.
Tell me who to tag for the
Spotlight. If you have some suggestions, including yourself,
send me an email.
I'm always looking for pictures of past and present cars
- a continuing project is: Car
Pictures. Are there more than three Classmates out there that still
have the car that they had at graduation? What is your ride now - email
me a picture?
The website has nearly unlimited storage for stories,
documents and photos. I can, and have scanned, posted and returned documents,
pictures, 35mm mounted slides and 35mm negatives.
Remember, our Scribe, Tim Davidson's, Checkpoints Class
News, is posted on the Class website as soon as he submits it
for publication.
If you're on Facebook and not one of over 120 of
us that are members of the "Private" USAFA68 Group on Facebook,
consider joining (send me an email), more information is here.
Our Facebook page is useful in letting you know when Tim's latest Class
News has been submitted and when a Classmate has died.
Nita and I will be with some of our family and over the
Holidays - hope you do too.
Be Safe and Take Care.
Pat Russell
USAFA68 Webmaster
