LTC Eric Ross From the 1971 Ranger yearbook

Bon Voyage Seniors No doubt you're glad it's over And itching to be set free, The urge to be where it's happening That's how it goes with me. Up at dawn with a great big yawn Each lonely day of the year. The call to be here, the call to be there Like a buzzing sound in the ear. Now the days of confusion are ending The challenges of life will unfold, Who will make it? Who will not? Don't think we've ever been told. Forget to sleep at attention Let your hair grow down to your knees, Do what you want if it seems your bag Try not to forget the word "Please," I can only wish the best for you Not much more I can say, Except I'll miss you knuckleheads After this final day in May. Good Luck, LTC ERIC C. ROSS COMMANDANT 28 MAY 1971
