   The four of pictured here are Martin B. Ryczkowski, Jim Sippey, Donald (Herky) Graham, and Tommy Goob.  They have all been lifelong friends.  All four were drafted the exact day, and went to boot camp together in Ft. Gordon, GA.  The picture is from graduation day.  They all went separate ways in Vietnam.  By the grace of God ALL four returned in 1967.  They are still friends to this day, and make a point to get together now and then!
