sahxx Y THE SENTINEL HISTORY OF BATTERY E Originally D Battery, 3rd Field Artillery, CMTC was called B Battery of the CMTC Provisional Field Artillery Battalion, Cback in IQ26l, and some of the old timers in our midst recall that during that year our officers were Captain Arthur B. YVade and Ist Lieutenant H. Baker, both of the 14th Field Artillery. During the summer of IQ27, Lieutenant Baker was relieved by Lieutenant Bush and Lieutenants WVatser and lVIcNaughton. On returning to camp in IQ28, we found that a decided change had taken place. lfVe reported on July 26th to find the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Field Artillery had replaced the name of the old ISK Battalion of the 14th Field Artillery. We also discovered that we were to be drilled the first two weeks by oflicers of the 33Ist Field Artillery CReserveD. The officers in command selected Fred D. Callahan to be Cadet Battery Commander and N. B. Kramer and Fred L. McCormick to be Cadet Lieutenants. These first two weeks passed quickly and now we found ourselves back among old friends. Lieutenant Bush, commanding, assisted by Captain Swedberg CReserveD, Lieu- changed. Eden tenant' Cannon and Lieutenant Scade. Our Cadet officers were also Hayes was made Cadet Battery Commander and Carlos Richards and Irving Dillard became our Lieutenants. Our drill continued unbroken. Then came the night of our Hrst dance. It was by far the best dance ever held by the CMTC. So on thru visitors, day and the second dance all of which passed with many a happy moment. The three day hike, another dance at Spring Bank, our return to Camp, and our time was getting short. Nevertheless, now that its time to depart, we want to say that we have never enjoyed a Camp more and if everything goes well, we are going to be back again next year.
