He attended the public schools of Bamberg, Carlisle Military School, and The Citadel, where he graduated in 1952, He is now doing graduate work in history at the University of South Carolina. In 1953, he entered the army as a 2nd Lieu- tenant. In 1955, he came out of the Army with the rank of 1st Lieutenant of Infantry. Upon completion of his active duty, Col. Risher started teaching at Carlisle. He re- mained there for three years. He then came to Camden to take the job of Headmaster. For the past four years Col. Risher has put forth much effort to make Camden Mili- tary Academy a top Grade school for every- one to be proud of. It is the opinion of the cadet corps that he has done this and much more. We of the EXCALIBUR staff salute you, Colonel Risher, for a job well done.
