As the years have gone by we all have changed. When we were together in the 3104th, we were young, wild, enthusiastic, and ready to tear the world apart with our teeth.  Our testosterone was raging, and we never even thought about the risks we took.  We were physically fit, had a job to do, plowed into the job with gusto, and knew we were immortal.

More than half a century has now passed and we begin to realize that we are, in fact, not immortal.  We shake our heads as we wonder why everyone else has changed so much when we have changed so little....

Even though our heads shake a bit, it’s sometimes fun to think about how young we were and to remember our buddies as we still visualize them and then see them now... after fifty eight years of “maturing”.

So here we present, side by side, pictures taken “then” and “now”. Would we recognize each other if we met on the street? Nope.  Methinks not.

Note:  If you have a picture of yourself either “Before” or “After”, that you would rather be used, please send it.  I’ll be happy to make the switch. I just use what I have!.

I’d like to have more pictures, so if you’re not here please send me one.
