EXPERIENCE OF A WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CADET By JAMES C. DULIN, JR. S I look back upon the history of the Waslu- ington .High School Cadet Corps and recall my personal experiences, there are three thoughts that stand out above all the rest and in themselves provide ample justification for the Corps. Thousands of boys, knowingly or unknowingly, are moved to action by their strong appeal. First-A definite goal. Second-Training and initiative. Third-Indelible record of accomplishment. Wliile attending the graded school it was my privilege frequently to see the cadets drilling, and how important they appeared. I wondered if the day would come when I would or could be one of them. ftlust like the desire of the small boy to drive a fire engine or steam locomo- tive when he gets to be a man.j I did not realize at the time that I was setting a goal for myself, creating unconsciously an ambition-it was but a dream. In the natural course of events I entered the Business High School and in due time was given an enlistment blank. The dream was coming true and I shortly found myself to be a cadet and member of Company E. As a cadet the first deep impression on me was necessity for obedience to orders of a fellow student, not a superintendent or teacher or other person with superior authority, but a stu.dent, a classman like myself, but obey I did and received training wholly different from any before. , I had not been a cadet many months when to my dismay I learned that my school had no chance of winning the drill because it was out- classed by the longer training afforded at the other schools and for proof it was only necessary to see our passed record of continuous defeat. A black outlook, but one that must be true because our companies lost my first year and again the second. It was then that my mind be- gan to work. I realized that I had a chance to become a Captain the next year and the re- sponsibility of breaking the spell would largely be mine. A goal presented itself requiring prepa- ration. I really studied the manual and visited West Point during the summer vacation and after the usual examinations upon returning to school was appointed Captain of Company E. In addition to the technique of drilling I realized that we had a bigger task, that of instilling in the mind of each cadet a feeling that if they did their best they could win. The whole company caught the idea and individually as well as collectively developed it and we won, the first time in the history of the school. Training plus initiative and endeavor had accomplished something, had established an in- delible record of achievement, a glorious page in school history. The Cadet Corps provided the field of action and many parallel cases have re- sulted. Therefore support it, extend its useful- ness, and let there be created in it many more worth while goals. DID YOU KNOW QContinued from page 671 That the open-style coat was adopted by the Corps in 1927. That in 1922 the black Sam Browne was adopted for officers and a grey Web belt for all other cadets. That Junior High School Cadets were once included in the Brigade. That in 1928, there were two Brigade Tech- nical Sergeants and no Brigade Personnel Adju- tant: they were directly responsible to the Bri- gade Commander. There were no Battalion Quartermasters un- til 1924. That Miss Rebecca E. Shanley has directed and managed the ADJUTANT ever since its in- ception in 1917. That a Brigade Medical Company was at- tached to the Second Regiment before 1925 CCompany MJ. Eighty-one That white belts for non-coms and privates were used with plain nickel buckles in 1927 and 1928. That the Cadets have participated in every Inaugural Parade, since the Inauguration of Pres- ident Cleveland in 1885. That the Corps was not organized into a Brigade until 1916. That in 1921, a Cadet Drum and Bugle Corps was established. That the next year the Band was started. That Lt. Paul L. Doerr, now Assistant PIVISQST, was adjudged Eastern's best Cadet in 1923. That through fifty years, the Cadet Corps has. on an average, increased by thirty men a year.
