Class of '66

Postby Grant » Wed May 21, 2008 10:59 pm

I found a few more pictures in an old album. These were my classes at the Government School in Jilib in 1966.

Tnx for sharing the pics.

I can just imagine the memories you hold of those places.

I am envious wish Volcan mind melds were a thing of reality. I do hope the technology arrives quick enough that will allow memory sharing/viewing.

Hidigow,

I never made it to Jowhar. I have e-mails out to two Volunteers who were there, because others were also asking, but so far no response. I will continue working on this pictures thing.

Xiddigow,

It is ok walaal, if it will help anybody you can say, Kambuli is pushing 60. :up:

Then in that case you are "Ali Shiine" :?:

Howcome you can be from, Jowhar then Camuud?

Then also you were the same school year as Tarzan or was he in Jowhar too? Culusow or Black? and then you were the same school year with Ibrahim Ahmed Caddow..

So your group in Benadir had many many doctors later on! If I tell you who was my brother and cousin you will find out who am I :?

Kambuli,
Shhhhhhh. I am not gonna say any more. You are getting very close.

Grant,
His name was James Cooper, IF he is alive, he should be now around 96. The last I saw him was 20 years ago in Oakland.

Hidigow,

He's not listed in the phone book. At that age, he could not have been a Volunteer. Sounds like he must have been a missionary.
