From the opening battle cry of Take boards to the final Section dismissed, we relentlessly pursued and eventually mastered the intricacies of algebra, solid and analytical geometry, trigonometry and calculus. Here also for the first time many of us met that demon, the slide rule. This basic knowledge of Mathematics acquired during our first two years was to stand us in good stead later on in such other subjects as Physics, Chem- istry, Electricity, Mechanics, Engineering and Ordnance. 24 Col Bessell, Col.
