Welcome "Armo"!
 
I remember you, & am thankful I never hit one of your booby traps.

Yes sir.

Libby lives south of downtown on 35.  She teaches at a school down there.

My impression of Randolph graduates leaving the area and not returning has changed. It seems some graduates do leave and not ever come back but there seems to be just as many that leave for a short time and then come back to stay. Looking at other school sites shows numerous Ro-Hawks saying they left but later returned. Even grads from the early 1960's who no longer have any family here return to San Antonio to retire. I wonder if there is a  connection  between a person being a military brat and having to move around all there life and ending up at Randolph which would be the last point in their life with a connection to the military life as a kid? Kids off base graduate and their parents stayed in the same house and the same job and the kids could come by and visit classmates and friends at their homes because nobody moved. Of course, that does not happen with us because parents get transferred and/or retire and so do the parents of classmates so there there is not really a place to go back to other than Randolph HS. My case. My dad retired after my Junior year and after I graduated we moved to Shreveport and I spent my freshman year in Monroe, Louisiana. I told my parents after my freshman year I was going back to Texas to go to school and I packed my bags and enrolled at SWTSU in San Marcos. I wonder how many other kids were in a similar situation?

Reconnecting after loosing contact for a time, never lost hope though. I attended RHS 74-76 and went on to graduate from Miami Carol City HS in '78. I too remember Mr. Armstrong and I beleive the other prankster to be Mr. Desso as a freshman in '75 I was fortunate to have survived the traps some of my fellow freshman teammates fell victim to.

Doing well Johnny, Glad be back in contact. I see the user status referencing airforce enlisted ranks, I had the unique situation while attending RHS that my father was in the Army on special assignment to an interservice ASVAB testing unit. The other people I remember whose fathers worked with my dad were the Lavasters (no exactly sure of this spelling & do not remember names) and the Williams, Mike, Cindy and Terri (Navy). If I remember correctly the unit was dissovled shortly after or fathers were transfered.
