The Color Guard The Regimental Color Guard of the Virginia Military Institute under the command of Cadet Regimental Ser- geant lajor T. W. Murphree, carries the Colors of the United States of America, the State of Virginia, and the Virginia lilitary Institute. The latter carries a blue streamer with the words Xew larket inscribed there- on, in commemoration of the only Corps of Cadets in T nited States history to have ever entered combat as a unit. The flag itself has on one side a shield similar to that of the State of ' irginia placed on a white background. and on the reverse side pictures George Washington over- looking the seal of the United States. The staff of the color guard is composed of two Color Privates, Cadets J. R. Trice and R. R. Speidel; Three Color Sergeants, Cadets W. A. Lewis, H. R. Evans, and R. D. Yearout; and the Regimental Supply Sergeant, L. B. Wilson.
