Yiililiif '9 I 'ill 2 u RECOMMENDATIONS A Few Unsolicited Letters of Commendation Received from Patrons During the Past Year ILLINOIS TERMINAL RAILROAD SYSTEM CENTRAL TIRMINAL BUILDING 7l0 NORTH TWELFTH BOULEVARD ST. LOUIS, MO. January Twentieth, 1 9 3 6 Castle Heights Military Academy, Lebanon, Tenn. Attention: Colonel Harry L. Armstrong Gentlemen: After our son Reed was home for his Christmas vacation quite a number of our friends commented on the improvement in bearing, manners, and general deportment. Mrs. Lynn and I have been very well pleased with his progress and hope he will continue to improve as well as to remain on the honor roll, but we both realize this is expecting a lot from a boy not yet twelve years old. ' I presume that his former schoolmates having returned to their studies three days before Reed returned to Lebanon caused him to be lonesome for the Tower, as he then became quite anxious to get back to school. He said he had never been home- sick, and, in fact, could not tell us the names of any boys who had been, altho he said there were a few. We were agreeably surprised to hear him speak so highly of the various officers who have the jobs of supervising his studies, sports activities, room care, etc., which of course bears out the impressions we formed in our visits to the school, both before and after it opened. You can appreciate how much our son thinks of your school when we tell you he has informed us he would like to complete his high school work there, which would mean a total of six years. With kindest regards to yourself and those officers we have met personally, I am Very truly yours, .gt TRACY LYNN Huntington, W. Va. January 29, 1936. Col. H. L. Armstrong, Castle Heights Military Academy, Lebanon, Tenn. Dear Col. Armstrong: Just a few lines to express our appreciation for what you and the rest of the faculty are doing for our boy, Harry Jr. He came home for Christmas for two weeks, and what a change we saw in him! He is wrapped up in your school. All we could hear.from him was something good about C. H. M. A. We thought as many other things that he has undertaken, your school would be just another of his dreams and possibly he would not Want to go back after the holidays. But afterall the good things we had arranged for him at home, he was ready to go back to school in three days. We have another boy, Maynard Len Turner, thirteen years old whom we had thought of sending to a nearer school, as we have several good schools near here, but after he talked to his Bud, Harry Jr., he said C.H.M.A. for him. He may be a prospect for the near future. We are very proud of Harry Jr.'s reports, although we know he is not an excellent scholar in his studies, we are perfectly satisfied with the extensive training you are giving him. Best wishes for the school and many thanks to you and the rest of the faculty. Yours very truly, MR. and MRS. HARRY A. TURNER If Nashville, Tennessee, Colonel H. L. Armstrong: Jan. 20th, 1936. Castle Heights Military Academy, Lebanon, Tennessee. My dear Colonel Armstrong: Edwin's progress at Castle Heights has been most gratifying to his father and myself. We feel it no more than just to your school, and to each and every one of your splendid staff of officers, to express our appreciation and satisfaction of your methods of handling your cadets. We feel we have chosen wisely and take pleasure in recommending Castle Heights when- ever the opportunity arises. Assuring you of our hearty cooperation, I am Sincerely, MRS. E. S. PETWAY Frankfort, Ky., Jan. 18, 1936. Col. H. L. Armstrong, Lebanon, Tenn. V Dear Colonel Armstrong: Your letter of December 30th was received in due time and I have passed over from day to day the reply which I should have made. I appreciate more than I can tell the change which has taken place in Philip since attending Castle Heights Military School. I have noted with satisfaction the pro ress he has made in many ways, including his attitude toward the school and toward the dependable things of life. I appreciate very much the opportunities for advancement which have been given to him as a member of the Student Honor Council, the privilege of serving as Head Waiter and the relation he sustains to the leadership of the military training work with his company. Taking the entire situation into consideration I am reatly pleased with the accomplishments of the school in his gehalf. With best wishes, I am Sincerely yours, G. W. WILKINSON I UNITED STATES NAVAL HOME Philadelphia, Penna. 14 January, 1936. Colonel H. L. Armstrong, Pres., Castle Heights Military Academy, Lebanon, Tenn. ' My dear Sir: lt was with a great deal of pleasure to be informed that my boy, Walter, has been placed on the Honor Roll, and l cannot express in words my great satisfaction and appreciation. As his father I am proud of him, and as a Cadet of your Academy I extend my congratulations and thanks in knowing that you are moulding him into a citizen of whom his God, his Country and we all may be proud. I note in page 42 of your Book of Castle Heights that you refer to the boys on the Honor Roll as a group of honest, loyal boys, selected for their honor and in- tegrity. Can a father ask for more? l assure you I will cooperate with you and. furthering these principles in my boy, and I desire to extend here my thanks and appreciation in your efforts in promoting these principles. Yours very sincerely, WALTER L. SCHOFIELD January 3, 1936. Colonel H. L. Armstrong, President, Castle Heights Military Academy, Lebanon, Tennessee. Dear Colonel Armstrong: The Holiday Season has been most enjoyable in our home, and Paul has been much in demand from his home friends, calls, and parties taking most of his time. Although he has enjoyed the leave from school, he is ready to return and will leave here Saturday arriving at Castle Heights Sunday, January 5th. The all around improvement which Paul has made this year is no doubt a source of satisfaction to you and his instructors and is indeed a joy to his mother and me. We note a great improvement in his attitude, courtesy, and understanding, and his grades have been the best of his school career. He should make further im- provement in academic work and realizes it, so I have great hopes that the remainder of the term will see continued improve- ment, even to the point of being satisfactory. He has a great interest in the Military Training and will, I am sure, make an effort to retain by appointment the non-com post he has been filling in an acting capacity. I am sending my check for a deposit to the Cadet Allowance account'for issuance weekly to Paul as in the past. In this con- nection .I desire to say that the Incidental account of which have received monthly statements, has been very low and entirely satisfactory in every way. I feel that this school is doing a great work and at a minimum of cost to the parent. Yours very truly, MORRIS E. STULTS
