The USNA Out Board of Directors is comprised of members representing the diverse professional backgrounds and academy year groups of our membership. The Board of Directors, though inputs from our membership, provide the energy and guidance for the organization so that we can best fulfill our mission. The Board is also joined by non-voting Board Advisors who liaise with the US Naval Academy faculty, staff and midshipmen and other organizations. Please let one of our board members know that you want to step forward and contribute to make USNA Out the great organization that it is.
Last Call
Since our last newsletter, USNA Out has lost the following members:
- Conrad Miller ’49 (6/29/2016) – When Conrad joined us in July, 2010, he wished that “I had known about this organization before I became superannuated!” and when challenged for the secret handshake to prove that he graduated from USNA, “I’m a 1949 grad. How the hell can I remember my laundry number?” Conrad kept in close touch, letting us know how the others at his living facility were a bit “closed minded.”. Read more about Conrad at https://www.usna.com/custom/GiveRSS.ashx?type=single&newsID=3365
- Glen Davis ’76 (9/7/2016) Glen joined USNA Out in 2008. Prior to his last move to San Diego, he was quite proud that had a table with his name on it at the famous Twin Peaks Bar in San Francisco, AKA “The Glass Coffin.” Glen was a varsity swimmer at USNA, and he shared his story participating in the Faces of USNA Out at http://usnaout.org/memoriam/glen. Read more about Glen at https://www.usna.com/custom/GiveRSS.ashx?type=single&newsID=3481
- David Lopez ’87 (6/7/2017). David was a plank-owner member of USNA Out. He worked in the real estate business in Southern Florida. Read more at David at https://www.usna.com/custom/GiveRSS.ashx?type=single&newsID=4260
- Charlie Wood ’42 (12/2 8/2016). Charlie was one of our first allies to join us. A resident of Spokane, Washington, upon retirement from the Navy, Charles began a second career as an Episcopal priest. In the 1980s, Charlie and his wife, Ann, joined the Spokane Chapter of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, and helped found Integrity, an LGBTQ advocacy group of the Episcopal Church. In 1992, Charles was the first clergy member to testify in front of Congress in support of allowing gays and lesbians to serve in the military. Read more about Charlie at https://www.usna.com/custom/GiveRSS.ashx?type=single&newsID=3775.
Note: Suicide remains the number one cause of death amongst our members who have graduated less than 40 years ago.
