M its Vera Ufzfrzzlz With cautions of 'flieep quiet, over there, Sunshine'l continues the busi- ness of swabbing out the throats of the gold-bricks until Doc Nlarshall arrives to take over the really sick. Sleeves rolled up, coat off, he examines those at morning sick call, sending some to bed, others back to duty. With years of experience behind him, he knows us Well. Doc', is the man suited for his job, careful, skilled and Wise to our ways. Upstairs, lVlrs. VVilcoXon, all in starchy white, is ready to take strict care of those sent to bed.

Military Staff These officers assigned here by the Army are the men responsible for our military education. To them goes the responsibility of seeing that we are prepared to take our place as leaders of men. With full realization that we have benefitted by their experience and teaching, we will remember them col- lectively and also for their individual traits: Col. Cullum, kind, generous and a most popular P. of NI. S. St T., Nlaj. Stapp for his liberal and helpful deal- ings through the Commandantls Office, lVla-i. Urell as the man upon a horse who taught us all we know about mounted drill, lVIaj. Posz, the easy going officer, yet not one to be trifled with, Lt. Day as the Junior impresario who was always attempting to straighten out our scrambled embryonic military ca- reers, Lt. VVard whose daily connection with cadets in the class room brought about an understanding of both military and historical problems, and Lt. Rob- inson, as the friendly officer whose poker face as he told a story, will always be remembered. Four other army men important to our military lives are Tech. Sgts. Graves and Reeves, Staff Sgt. Radulski and Sgt. Fielden. To these four we give our recognition and appreciation, long overdue. VVho can forget Sgt. Graves as he wandered around the stables seeing that we all got horses, or George Reeves and Ski as they explained the detail stripping of a machine gun, and Hank', Fielden, new to us this year but very popular, as he taught to us agents the lVIl rifles and tommy gun. P. of M. S. St T. ,Page 23, Office Personnel The Office Staff played also an important part in this hectic year, answering questions, typing forms, and generally straightening the enormous amount of paper work that had to be done. Upon inquiry we found that this amount- ed to as much work as a division headquarters takes care of.
