A few Classmates really got carried away with the celebration.

    Rowdy  behavior,  tooooo  erotic and exciting to describe!
               Hopefully everyone made it home safely?  Attendees:  These are the few Classmates that would allow
                    me to print their names.  Others might have been

Command of the A-26 Bomber, a.k.a. The Widow Maker.
              A plane notorious for killing in-experienced pilots.
