Hey A-l-l-l-l-b-e-r-r-r-r-t!

Remember that tag line, how I'd say "Hi" at WGH 1968 when I'd see you in the halls? Just ain't right, you were too gentle to be taken like this. And you went airborne. Son of a gun, Albert, whooda thot that, you! Well done.

I ain't forgotten you, just like it was yesterday, cutting class for Prince's Pizza. Why don't you walk out of that place tomorrow, "Hey, where'd everybody go?"

--Airborne! VJ, 101st Phu Bai 1969-70
