...discovered two brother combinations on the campus. There may be more; we'd appreciate any information if there are. Unique in the annuals of U. S. armed forces is the situation of Bob and Dick Carney, both midshipmen in the junior class. These fraternal twins (reference: Life of a couple of weeks ago) have been together all during their naval career. Leaving Portland (Oregon) University last June, they entered V-12 together at Willamette University; then stayed together for temporary duty at the Seattle air base; and continued on to Harvard...

They are Ted Eberle, midshipman in the junior class, and Bill Eberle of the "sophomore" class in the midshipmen-officers' school.

Coming directly from nearly 100 V-12 schools all over the country, these boys, after their commissioning as midshipmen on Tuesday, will have had less indoctrination in Navy procedure than any previous midshipman class. Perhaps a general dissemination of the old Pearson, Bruns, and Cave principles, coupled with the case system and report dead lines, will show them "Navy" Harvard style. . . . As A. Graham meets his wife Saturday...
