My esteemed classmates:
It is with a tremendous amount of pride that I forward to you this emotional and heartfelt opus, chronicling our four years in Bancroft Hall and through our illustrious careers.
It was fifty one years ago today that we were sworn in on “I-DAY”.
I implore you to look intensely at the photographs and listen to the words accompanying this original song.
The Naval Academy Class of 1978 is universally respected by all alumni as a prolific group of men.
It is our sincere desire to cement our legacy by orchestrating our unprecedented and unique endowment.
We hope that this video is the catalyst for you to remember our brotherhood fondly and “donate” to enhance the Class of 1978’s indelible mark on this venerable institution.
Your Classmate,
John “Smegs” Semcken
