FOREWORD There is a certain sadness in the continuous flow of annual publications such as this yearbook. They pass so quickly; the years which they symbolize are so soon relegated to faded obscurity. But the past need not be faded. It lives in what we read and think and see about us every day. It lives in the very title of this publication. Almost two centuries ago, the Delaware Regiment fought with such courage and distinction in the American Revolution that Congress gave them special public acclaim: . . . for the unparalleled bravery by them displayed in advancing to the enemy through an incessant fire, and charg- ing them with an impetuosity and order that could not be resisted. So, in the year 1960, we can remember and recreate this fine remembrance. In taking the Delaware Regiment's nick- name for the title of our yearbook, we form a very real and shining link with the past.
