Hugh W. jared As the battalion passes the reviewing stand, the command is Eyes right! ln the early part of May came the big event for the ROTC -federal inspection. This inspection not only summed up the battalion's efforts on the drill field, but also provided an opportunity to test the cadets on their yearls class work. First-year cadets were tested in first aid and on the M-1 rifle, second-year cadets, on the Browning automatic rifle and marksmanship, third-year cadets, who were concluding their high school ROTC days, were tested on small unit tactics and map reading. Besides this volume of classroom work, many hours of drill were spent on the drill Held, under regular army instructors, cadet officers, and cadet NCO's. The combination of all these efforts brought A.L. its fine rating among schools offering ROTC. Abraham Lincoln was fortunate in having instructors with varied back- grounds and many experiences in the fight for freedom -such men as Captain D. H. Poss, MfSgt. lrel Reed, MfSgt. Hugh jared, and SFC Edwin Focht. lllllljil-IS Tirst Row: Foreman, Mcllurney, O'Meara, Hon. l.t. Col.
