WHITECOTTON The Last Retreat! just three words, but what those three words meant to the CMTC of. 1925! On the evening of August 28, keeping in step with the famous old 17th Infantry band, 1700 young men from Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri, marched on the polo field, and there held their last retreat. With the regiment at present arms and while the band played The Star Spangled Banner, Old Glory slid down the halyards into the tender hands waiting below. . ' It was the last retreat, and, as the boys' eyes were cast on Old Glory, as she descended the mast, there arose in their throats a feeling that they could not force down. What a thrill of pleasant memories came back to the boys as they watched this! General King, the big hearted man, says, Our high class men themselves made the camp what it was this year, and to them is due the credit, God bless 'em . These young men,' assembled on a common ground of equality, comradeship and patriotism, represented the best blood and citizenship of their generation, the leaders of the future, and defenders of the Nation. As the young men marched off the field, they gave one last look and each resolved that when the camp opened the following year, he would be among the first to be there.
