David Taylor getting wings pinned by Kathryn Fuller
David Taylor's description of this photograph: "'Very Young' of David Taylor having his Wings pinned on by Kathryn Fuller. [This] was the date that my wings were pinned on. The party doing the pinning is my wife, Kathryn Fuller 1968 Pembroke. The date would have been about end of Jan or so, 1968. She finished school 6 months early (we were married in Dec of 1967). As I mentioned this was after my motorcycle fiasco that result in a broken wrist, and gouged chin. We went to California after this, via Mazatlan, Mexico (driving) and ended up living in Laguna Beach prior to my departure for Vietnam in August of 1968. Kathryn is the mother of our daughter, Sarah, and currently affiliated with Brown as a Fellow of the University I believe. Katheryn's career was later as President of World Wildlife Fund (WWF), and I believe Chair of the Board of Ford Foundation."
