Reserve The Patch Junior Officers Training Corps, is a task force attached to the 5HT AJROTC Battalion, Stutt- gart High School. The ROTC program offers a wide range of enjoyable activities, field trips, and can serve as a helpful edge for a military scholarship or a mili- tary career. During the course of the year, the ROTC had a large and busy schedule on tap. Just two of the many field trips that the cadets attended were, one to an avia- tion batallion at Stuttgart Army Air Field where the cadets were given an enlightening tour of the site. The trip was topped by a helicopter flight over the Stutt- gart area. Another to the East German border where the cadets were again given an eye opening tour which answers that so often asked question: Why are we here in Europe? The highlight of the ROTC year is the annual military ball. The ball, as always, turned out to be a very enjoyable evening. lt was held at the Patch officers lub. The Patch AJROTC starts heading to a close after the nnual formal inspection, where the cadets are nspected and parade before a general officer. Then he ROTC program, as a whole is looked over by a eam of officers from Washington, D.C. he ROTC program is truly one of Patch High Schools ost active groups!

P. H. S. PRINT SHOP Only being in the second year of a new school, many clubs and organizations were only in the growing stage. One such club that has grown by leaps and bounds is the P.H.S. Print Shop. With the acquisition of a new off- set machine, the print shop has the ability to do anything a normal print shop can do, including printing newspapers and stationary. The P.H.S. print shop is a non-profit organi- zation whose major projects were the silk- screening of T-shirts and the printing of tick- ets. Under the auspices of advisor Herr Dob- ner and president Joe Withrow, the printing shop had a very prosperous year and laid the foundation for a very solid organization. -sN.mZE?3iir.zi,,,sw:.
