WILSON, ORAN W. , i , 'Linn Creek: MO HISTORY OF COMPANY HF H Out of the seventeen hundred men who came to Jefferson Barracks for militar train ing, one hundred eighty-four men from Illinois, seven from Missouri, and one fromyArkan- sas, were organized into Company F which was to become the crack Basic company of the CMTC. When these men arrived at the Barracks on July 8, they were about as green as the leaves on a tree. After the physical examinations were over and equipment had been issued, we began to get a real taste of army life. We were first shown how to m-ake our bunks-the first difficulty to be surmounted, and then the arrangement of baggage under bunks, rolling the tent walls, opening thewoods, and many other small incidents of our life to be were soon found out and quickly learned. ' Q' But in a few days, the boys began to get homesick! After about four days of 'cSquads right and c'Squads left , army life began to lose a bit of its glamour. Those who were homesick wrote for permission to return home. Some got the necessary permission, after about a week,-but by that time did not want to go. On July 26, after two weeks of drilling, the boys went to the rifle range to shoot it out with the bull's-eyes. Only about twenty out of the entire Company did not get marksmanship medals. The average for the Company was about 60 outof a possible 75, which is considered very good for a bunch of boys, many of whom had never shot a riHe before. Company F not only led in drill and cleanliness, but also led the other Basic com- panies in athletics. Company HF , 'with the aid of Collie Baker, Lloyd Courtright and other men of great athletic prowess, won first place in the entire regiment. The Company owes its supremacy in drill and athletics to Lieutenants White, Erwin and I-Iundley. These men did much to take the civilian slowness out of us. VVe appreciate very much their assistance. 6 6 But we must not forget our Regular Non-Coms. Corporals Sparks, Simpson, lNIueller, Taylor and Rogers, and Sergeants McDonald and Strass. These men are the ones who gave us our actual drill and are the ones to whom we owe our rapid development. The activities around the Company, especially at night, although very amusing, were disastrous for the jokers . All of these affairs were taken good naturedly by the boys, which showed the high quality of sportsmanship among the members of the Company. The Company, after its work on the rifle range, was practically through with its training. On July 31, there was a Regimental Parade in which Company F made a very creditable showing. Then the last big day came-August 4, Visitors' Day at the Camp. We had a final review which was the greatest moment of our Camp life. Our friends came to see boys, but instead saw men. The officers, with the assistance of thirty days of camp life, wholesome food, and hard drill, had developed the boys who had entered camp into men. Will all of the boys come back next year? No one knows, but we hope to see each other again in 1927. Tothose who come back, 'fWelcome g to those who do not come back, Come and visit us . ' MAYBE HE WAS A VETERAN I While waiting for students coming in at Union Station, a ,Regular Army man was approached by an Arkansas lad who had hiked in. He was attired in an old cast-off uniform, but evidently knew his stuff. At least, he appeared to. HThe R. A. man asked him if he thought he would like it. The student-to-be replied, I guess that when they see me they will start me on training someof the othersf' 4 i Page S ixty-raven v v v v v 1 4 'ave'uve'A'a'0'A'a'4v0'o'A'A'n'oYu's'a'o'u'uva'n'lvs'0v4'A vnvlvnvovnnvbvcvuvtvssva'sv V V V v v V vu A 0 0 l 0 .
