'F All men listed are serving in the Army unless otherwise indicated. I-Iartlardd Academy is proud of its many graduates in the armed forces of our country. We sincerely lhope this record is accurate. If it is not, please notify the Academy office. C. A. A. F., Box 55 Columbus, Miss. 25 March 1944 Editor of the Ripple Hartland Academy Hartland, Maine Dear Editor: In answer to your request, I am glad to outline briefly my present work in the Air Corps since May of 1943g Three days from Hartland via New York, Washington, and Montgomery, Alabama, I ar- rived at the Columbus Army Air Field classi- fied as an instructor in Navigation. Up to that time, my knowledge of planes anld their mo- tion through the air had been confined to one three hour watch on duty as an aircraft spot- ter on top of the Hartland Tannery. You can imagine that I approached this with al- most as much -confidence as I used to have when I faced Mr. Dunn over the ping-pong tafble. But after observing classes in the ground school for a while and spending a couple of months at Rand'olph Field, Texas, I was made an instructor-the Army way. Thus, I am ldoing much the same type of work as in civilian life plus the usual aldmin- istrative military duties that are connected with each of tihe hundreds of airdromes which have grown up from Florida to California. Wlxile actually the objective of the Training Command is to turn inexperienced cadets into experienced, disciplined men, skilled in the art of killing, my particular job is to help pilots keep themselves and their charges alive while attempting to conlduct a plane form one place to another. C. A. A. F. is an advanced twin-engine training post. This is the last trial for pro- spective pilots. A pair of wings and lieuten- nantis bars are awaiting them at the end of eight weeks. The journey through Pre-Hight, Primary, Basic, anid Advance schools is rather rough but the training is excellent and the work is not beyond the average aboy. I would like the pleasure of having a Hart- land Academy boy reach my classes some day. Maynard Moore '39 is on his way and perhaps others will become acquainted with the Mag- nolia State under a summer's sun. For those who reach this stage, transition school lies di- -rectly ahead and a pilot's job' on a B-17 or B-24 is not too difficult to visualize. I expect that each member of the Class of 1944 will have a direct share in the conclusion of this world conflict. My best wishes and hopes are with them. I wish to extend, also, to the faculty and underclassmen of Hart- land Academy congratulations for their ex- cellent work under the most trying of times. Sincerely yours, C. J. Cutts 1st Lt. AIC Sampson, New York March 16, 1944 Dear Classmates, I have just finished four weeks of boot training here at Sampson, New York. One more week and it will be completeld. I will be glad to get back to the good old State of Maine for a few days. The first week at boot camp is the hardest. When you arrive in Sampson you get a very heavy meal, a glass of milk and a sandwich. All the sailors will be shouting and saying, You will be sorry . Most of us are sorry any- way. After you have digested your sandwich, they give you a physical examination, and then you receive your clothes which are thrown at you from all directions. You are taken next to your barracks, which is your home while in boot training. The recruits that have been in camp a week ahead of you, call themselves old salts , and you 'fbarber baits . After your hair is cut, you are called skin heads . Another thing that they kid you about is when you are inoculated against diseases. Wait until you get the square needle or the one with the propeller , they say. A recruit's training is mostly drilling, go- ing to lectures which are like going to mo- vies. This is an idea of what Navy boot train- -I 51 1-
