ROTC o perfect score and polished service When the US Sth Army's Federal Inspection team visited Churchi1l's ROTC unit, the team re- ceived a perfect score although no citation could be awarded because a battalion must have at least 100 cadets to be considered. In 1971-1972, Chur- chill's unit was 81 in number. Two cadets, Capt. Van Pinner and Lt. Charles O'Kelley, received four-year scholarships when a two-star general landed his helicopter on the football field to make the presentations personally. The Military Ball in january was the annual social highlight, and cadets were pressed into duty as guides and ushers for the PTA Open House and various sports activities.
