Class of 1956

Class Posts

Jim Kenney, 1/9/04
My name is Jim Kenney. I only attended BCC for one year and graduated in 1956. My father was a Navy doctor stationed at Bethesda Navy Hospital. BCC was the third high school I attended in one year. The other two were located in Philadelphia, PA and Jacksonville, FL. I loved BCC and enjoyed the people I met there. I played football although not very well.
After school I joined the Navy, qualified in submarines and was attending the Naval Academy Preparatory School at Bainbridge Naval Station in MD when I was hurt in a football game. Lots of reconstructive surgery and then I was out of the Navy and a student at University of Maryland. Thought I'd never graduate, but did and had a wonderful time. Active on campus and in the fraternity, Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
Commissioned in the Air Force with assignments in Spain, Germany and stateside in Massachusetts and Connecticut. Tour in Vietnam and then out and spent a career as an FBI agent stationed in Buffalo, New York City, Fort Lauderdale and San Antonio, TX.
Retired and have been the owner of a worldwide private investigative company since retirement. Met one BCC graduate in my travels. BCC was a heck of a school, which left me with a lot of good memories from having attended for such a short time.
