"Note: Schultz did not graduate with the class.  He wrecked his Harley several weeks before graduation and was taken off flight status.  He was a good pilot.  Hoda was upset about something on the day of this picture and refused to pose with the class.  I ran into him about 10 years ago.  He fled Iran after the revolution and was living in California.  I'm sorry to say that Cornelius and Hagman were KIA in Viet Nam.  Settlemire was a POW I believe."
