Thomas Hugh Smith (aka “TS”) 69-71

After graduating from San Jose State with a business major and a minor in aeronautical operations, I graduated from naval pilot training and completed two cruises aboard the USS Oriskany with my pledge marshall Charlie Derego. We were in the same squadron and shared a room smaller than any room at Theta Chi. I joined Continental Airlines in 1977 and currently fly the B777. Retired from the naval reserves in 1994.

In 1971 I married my college sweetheart Karen, a San Jose State Delta Gamma, and have been happy ever since. I live in Rancho Palos Verdes, California.
