HEADQUARTERS, USCC SKETCH OF TACTICAL DEPARTMENT ' S HISTORY The Department of Tactics was born during Colonel Thayer ' s administration when 2nd Lt. George W. Gardiner was designated first Instructor in Tactics and charged with the disciplinary training of the Corps of Cadets. At that time the Corps consisted of one battalion of two companies, commanded by a cadet colonel. Cadet officers rotated positions each week. Major William J. Worth reorganized the Department in 1820 and is known as the Father of the Tactical Department. In December of that year two Lieutenants were detailed as the first company Tactical Officers; they lived in cadet barracks. The title of Commandant of Cadets and Officer in Charge are first noted in the Regulations of 1825- Down through the years the Department of Tactics has grown to meet the times, but has maintained its original organization and continued to carry out its mission of conducting the administration, discipline, and tactical training of the Corps. The present Corps of Cadets is organized as a Brigade of two regiments of twelve companies each. The Department of Tactics — Headquarters, USCC — is headed by the Commandant, who is assisted by a large staff whose job it is to insure close coordination and staff supervision of the training and administration of the Corps ol Cadets.
