<p>I have a son who aspires to USNA. If he’s successful, I plan on being at I-day - although I will probably play it a little more “low-key” than my dad did on my I-day. I can remember him appearing occasionally during the course of the day, Kodak super-8 movie camera in hand, recording me and my future squadmates in various locations and activites. I was more than slightly embarrased at the time and divulged to no one that the man with the movie camera was my father. He’s since passed on, but I still have the movie footage and am planning to convert it to DVD for our next reunion (#30). It will be emotional watching the video. My squadmates appearing with me on I day are now lifelong friends…a few are no longer with us. My father was kind of a pain that day, but now the memories and images he captured and preserved are priceless. Thanks Dad! I love you!</p>
