During Alumni Weekend, May 1, 2010, President Nygren<br />

discovered th<strong>at</strong> he’d made a <strong>Sem</strong> connection 40 years earlier.<br />

Meeting Dr. Nelson Banks ’60 <strong>at</strong> S<strong>at</strong>urday’s cocktail reception,<br />

Nygren recognized the medical doctor assigned to his first Army<br />

unit, the 3rd Squadron, 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment loc<strong>at</strong>ed<br />

in Amberg, Germany. Serving together in February 1970, Nelson<br />

gave Nygren a physical exam required for entrance into flight<br />

school. Casually correcting Nygren’s erroneous assumption th<strong>at</strong><br />

he had hay fever, a condition th<strong>at</strong> would have disqualified him<br />

from becoming a pilot, Banks changed Nygren’s life forever.<br />
