THE SENTINEL ff f FAREWELL COLONEL FREDERICK B. SHAW You have spent a month at Fort Sheridan learning some of the things that will better fit you to help defend our country if the need should come. You have learned something in addition to what you previously knew, hope, of the value of this country of ours, not only to you individually, as the land of outstanding opportunity, not only to us Americans as the pioneer and the still leading exponent of human liberty, but to the world, by our example and influence for both. You have learned, I believe, that even in the age of automobiles and machine work, vigorous outdoor exercise is the secret of good health, long life, and that general fitness that makes for the mental and physical alertness and eagerness which have produced the miracle of the present day America. - If you have learned these things, you have a greater respect, love and admiration for our country, a stronger determination to do your part toward preserving its institu- tions, and get a greater thrill in honoring our history and traditions, in performing your duties as good citizens, in reverencing the emblem of our greatness, the Hag, and in respect- ful attention when our National Anthem is played. We truly have every reason to be proud and happy that we are citizens of the United States. We enjoy privileges and opportunities that few others have, and none in equal degree. VVe have them because we, and our ancestors before us, made them possible by devotion and service, especially in times of stress. It is the obligation of every citizen to carry on , not only when defense of our country against a foreign foe requires it, but in the calm and peaceful days when we are apt to become so absorbed in our personal affairs that Wei-some of usfsometimes overlook or forget our duties as good citizens to ourselves and our posterity. If graduates of the CMTC learned but this one thing- that their privileges as American citizens 'carry with them the definite obligations of main- taining the conditions which make them possible-it would still be a most valuable in- stitutionf, Colonel Frederick B. Shaw, commanding the Second Infantry, was born in Pennsylvania in 1869. He en- listed in Company A of the 21st Infantry in 1892 and received thereafter tl1e following promotions: to 2nd Lieutenant, 1896, to 1st Lieutenant, 1898, to Captain, IQOIQ to Major, to Lieutenant Colonel, 1920, and to Colonel, July ofthe same year. He held temporary commissions as follows: Colonel in the National Army, August, 19175 Brigadier General in the United States Army, October, 1918. For the past three years he was Chief of the Train- ing Section iu the Militia Bureau, after three years in charge of National Guard affairs in the Fifth Corps Area.
