 In the fall of 1949, eighty-eight beaming recruiters entered the Cary High School training camp. Thirty-two of these hailed from Mount Vernon Goodwin School- others were already stationed at Cary. As we marched into our boot-training, we were pleased to learn we had finally achieved the point in our lives where we could be more independent. This train- ing was so different, it was difficult for us to become adjusted. We were ranked as privates our freshman year. As usual, we had to leave behind some of the members of our squadron. In our Sophomore camp, we, as corporals, were given the task of acquainting the newcomers with our camp life. The new draftees with us helped take the place of those we had lost. Being more familiar with this life, we looked forward to higher promotions. Unfortunately, our squadron grew even smaller than it had the year before. As Juniors, receiving the rank of sergeant, we felt that we had a larger responsi- bility than ever. Realizing the value of our training in the past two years, we worked even harder to make this year more worthwhile. There were big events awaiting us; namely, planning the Junior-Senior banquet and dance; also giving a play, which gave us experience for the Senior play. This was really the last year of training, because the following year was to be more or less one of review. Realizing the necessity of this, we managed to keep most of our troop. Then, our Senior year in this wonderful camp approached. By working so hard the year before, we were promoted to lieutenants. The captains of our new crew this year were Mrs. Clare J. Marley and Mrs. Hugh G. Parker. With the aid of the class officers and the superb co-operation of our class, we made our class, our trip, our play and graduation a huge success. Everywhere, there were new opportunities for us. Fifty-five, out of eighty-eight that began as Freshmen, received an honorable discharge. Now, for the betterment of our friends, as well as ourselves, we want to march— Onward—'til we reach our highest goal. ANNIE JO MUSTIAN Class Historian
