Listen to the interview:

Allen: "I was disappointed that I wasn't heading for Yale [for Naval V-12 training] but I knew Dartmouth by reputation. I didn't know a great deal about it but when the bus with all of us pulled up in front of the Hanover Inn ... I'll be in tears soon, I'm sorry ... I looked at that campus and I saw the Green and Baker Library ... and I met Bob Kirsch ... We became very close friends all throughout our V-12 experience."
