THE SQUADRON STAFF The military this year has been greatly improved over last year, beginning with this year ' s O, C. S. training. All N. C. O. ' s and officers were required to attend and pass this training program which resulted in a greatly improved organization benefitting all con- cerned. All flights seemed to do well in some area of flight competition, B flight won overall honors while HQ flight won intramural activities. A and C flights, while failing to win any of the competition honors, did well in them. They were at their best in other areas not covered by flight competition such as bootlegging, hamburgers, tun- nel digging, etc. B flight, under the firm hands of its capable officers, won the title of honor flight, and was presented with a ribbon proclaiming it top flight in flight competition for the first semester. It is now a strong contender for the same title this semester. A flight, while failing to win the title of honor flight, is progressing slowly but surely toward this goal. C flight was at the bottom of the morale slump, as sometimes happens, but now has swung back into the routine. This flight has acquired the nickname Gopher Flight It showed its imagination and talent after the motion picture Great Escape was shown. Strange sounds were heard emanating from C flight after taps; upon investigation it was found that the cadets had dug a tunnel running the length of the flight! HQ flight has improved immensely from an unorganized detachment into a well trained and disciplined unit. We hope that they will continue to progress at their present rate. 53
