First. the fight- ing Fifth, headed by section leaders Royal Smith. Carl Flaws, Tom Axon. and Doug lVlcGrath. snaps to attention. From these ranks have come some of the unit's lead- ing scholars, finest athletes. ablest militarists, and biggest characters . . . that average raising trio of Charlie Phillips, George Vande Sande. and Bill Russell: that trio of muscle men, George Blackburn. Fred Siemert. and Tom Axon: that trio of who knows what. Bud Smith. john Burnett. and Tom Christian: bandmaster Archie l johnson. and Paul Smith, the soap-box kid. l Nloving down the ranks, we come to section Six. led by Dummy Wood. Ernie . Nagy. and George The Little Fuehrer Katzmann. In these lines we find smiling Bill Craven, the slide-rule wizard. Next in line is section Seven. commanded bv Shortv l.ean7a. Rex Garv. and il Doc Stein. From this rugged section came the 'unit's championship football' ICIH11. i sparked by Gary. Ying jones. Roald Strutz. Wayne Fahnestock. and Al Eisemann. ' as well as a strong baseball team which almost overtook the lighting Fifth. And finally we come to section Eight. boasting of such well knoun characters l as Sleeping Beauty Scott. Rocket Rudnick. and Bitter john Black: the Eighth can certainly look back upon numerous amusing classroom incidents. These are the sections and these are some of the men who have enabled Flight B to make the fine record it has. academically. militarily. and athleticallv. Flight B. 'ten hut! Dismissed!

Confound you, do you think this is the A. S. T. P.?,' No, the report retort did not come from the soldierly A. S. T. P. unit, but rather from the EM in charge of Flight A. In addition to the permanent fiight leader, Douglas La Cour, and then Leo Sayre, Flight A was headed by a cadet flight leader. The flight was divided into four sections of about equal strength each led by a section leader. Section leadership has been held by Lee Pierson, Len Klotz, and Roald Strutz fSec. lj: Leo Sayre, Tom Friedman, and Ed Gibbs fSec. Zjz Mort Lippman and Myron Lanin QSec. SJ: and Dave Musgrave, Fred Martin, Wallace White, and Stanley Ross fSec -ij. Members of the fiight have stamped it with unforgettable characteristics: Ernie , l Hubbard at attention: George Farrow late: Jerry Ebner out of step: Norm Becker at chow: Don Pitkoff the artist: the bitterness of Bob Foster: Al Myers, Hal Chapman, l and Bob Peck helping Flight A to monopolize the post of C. C. O.: Bob Aronson and Len Klotz the literary lites: Mark Luber the civilian prototype: and Lyle Settle- I Rivalry with the other fiight was engendered on the athletic field where inter- . sectional contests were waged in baseball, touch football, speed ball, soccer, and volley ball. This rivalry reached a peak at review each Saturday when Flight A l marched forth in competition with Flight B for the high-sounding title of honor I fiightf' T The letter A is befitting of the men of this fiight. As men and buddies they have been Aces, one and all. Flight A, 'ten hutl Dismissed!
