THE STAFF Maj. Kochan Maj. Tresselt Lt. Col. Downey Maj. Adams Capt. Kecatos The highest honor that any cadet can achieve, upon reaching his 4A semester, is to become a member of the regimental staff. When, after two years of steady promotion, a cadet reaches the rank of second Lieutenant, or better, he is eligi¬ ble to take the staff test. He is tested on his knowledge of Military Science and Tactics, his ability to drill, and on his merit of past semes¬ ters. A prospective officer must have a high schoolastic average. After the competitive scores are established the lieutenant colonel and his staff are chosen. This staff is composed of a lieutenant colonel and six majors, three regimental and three battalion, and a supply captain. The Lieutenant Colonel at present is Joseph Downey, a capable and well liked commander. His staff is as fol¬ lows; Executive Major John Kochan; P. T. Major Louis Tresselt; Regimental Adjutant Edwin Adams. These three Majors compose the regimental staff. The battalion Majors are as follows; 1st. Battalion, John Schmidt; 2nd. Bat¬ talion, Ray Peters; and 3rd. Battalion, Edward Gessner. The supply captain is Ted Kecatos. L t. Col. Downey is in charge of officers’ school and, of course, is assisted by his staff. Lt. Col.
