'igpx if THE SENTINEL HISTORY OF BATTERY D , CMTC Remember that day in July, years ago it seems, when we vacated our homes in XVis- consin, in Michigan and in lllinois and found shelter in that most popular summer resort, the CMTC area at Camp McCoy? Camp McCoy is truly the land of sand and the home of details , but we found ourselves with a number of old time friends who had passed thru the wars of '26 and ,27 with us. Again we were lined up and in the examination which followed every part of our bodies was examined. Then came the fierce struggle with our newly acquired clothing. lt took some time to get used to the feel of the uniform again, but it didnit take long until we were back in harness, ready for thirty days of real work. For the first two weeks we were under officers from the Reserves, and fine instructors they proved to be. VVe know that we got a lot out of those first two weeks. The third and fourth weeks found us again under the protecting wings of Battery D of the 3rd Field Artillery and right here and now we want to go on record as saying that we are deeply grateful to the officers and the enlisted men of Battery DU for their leadership and their untiring efforts on our behalf. They made our stay pleasant, interesting and instructive. May we say that you will remain long in our memory. Of our many trials and tribulations we shall not speak: of our pleasures and joys- we remember them without a single reminder necessary. It is needless to say that we enjoyed out stay at McCoy and hope to be back again next year. A DAY ON THE RANGE WITH BATTERY DH The morning of August 17th dawned with clearing skies after a night of rain. With shrill whistle blasts and stentorian encouragement, First Sergeant Large routed the battery out a half hour earlier than usual. Dressing and policing proceeded mid tumult and shout- ing, and after an early mess, the battery marched to the stables. Horses were hitched and at HH hour the battery moved out. The road led east from camp for a mile or more through shady oaks and open fields. At the foot of a high hill the battery swung into position. Limbers and teams were sent to the rear. The observation post on top of the hill was manned and communications were established. Theibattery was ready to fire. Up until now, we had functioned like a well oiled machine, but now what was to happen? Could we continue to function prop- erly? VVould we be able to apply the things we had learned? Shortly we would know. At last the first message came from the Blue cadets in the O. P., where they had been performing miracles of calculation. Gunners and squads down below performed accurately the instructions phoned down. Results: well, we fired problem after problem with excellent results. In all sixty-two rounds were fired without a single mishap. Far too soon the firing was completed, teams and limbers came up, the battery was put in marching order, and the order to move out was given. Every one was in high spirits. The joy of a job well done made itself felt along the line. VVe entered the gun park at a trot. Thus ended our first day on the range. wAonA- YA 0?
