.lg-., ii '-if :St . i , f, AQ l924 nouausov 24th Infantry have since carried on the best traditions handed down by those who have gone before. They have served the needs of the Infantry School, proud of being members of the 24th Infantry, yet humble, faithful, and ever ready to assume and accomplish the duties required. Brief reference should be made to the many trophies which the regiment has gathered during its lifetime through the prowess of its members in athletic contests and military competitions. They crowd four long shelves in regimental headquarters, and silently speak for themselves. Perhaps in conclusion the following most recent bits of history may be of interest: lst:-During the last six months of 1923 the regiment acquired the record of losing by discharge and retirement 454 men and enlisting during the same period 483, a turnover of about 60 percent of the total strength. The significant feature of these figures is that 58 percent of the discharged men reenlisted in the regiment. 2nd:-On a Wednesday afternoon, not long ago, the recreation hall of the 24th Infantry resounded for the first time to the strains of the regimental song, whistled and then sung by the entire regiment standing under arms facing the stage. When the last echo had died away the Commandant of the Infantry School, from the center of the stage, expressed to the regimental commander, Colonel B. P. Nicklin, and to the assembled regiment, his pleasure in the fact that the 24th Infantry had composed and adopted for its own, a strong, simple, and dignified song, and that it could sing this song with a spirit which rneant-regimental esprit de corps. - ...fr--A. ..... ,- ..,-74, Q, A f , f' -- - - at 2 - t l V - X 12 zfiiw ff ,ITS-vt.: -fr-fff N M' if - 24.3 -1 2 I I ' L . f i f 5-v --w ' U - ,.., Q-. yu-L I t .:.-, , fu L..
