Page sixty-1' 1,1111 f The Armorers are a group of Cadets who have volunteered their services for the care of the rifles in the C.B. A. Armory. An extremely important, although little heralded organization is that of the Armor- ers. They must work hard and long to insure smoothness of operation through daily military life. Under the direction of Brother Francis, these boys supervise the distribution of 600 rifles each d1'ill day, and then check their return. The care of the materials used in keeping the rifles clean and ready for use is also their work. The fine condition of all the Armory equip- ment is a credit to the boys of the Armorer Squad.

In the opinion ot' its officers it is the finest marching unit in the regiment. lt has won the award of honor com- pany several times. Although it holds up the tail end of the regiment, it is rated higher than its position in the regiment. Some ot' the outstanding men in llUWl'l company are: in basketball t'armen Romano, Ron De Matteo, Tom Hailey and John La Fond. Our public speaker is Dick Salisbury. There you have some personalities ot' Il company, not only an outstand- ing marching unit, but also composed ot' outstanding individuals.
