Summer drill WAS HOT. BLUE, WHITE AND KHAKI 7 . HE 1300 V-12 Gobs and Leathernecks on campus come from everywhere. While most of them are directly from high school or are old Carolina boys, there are many Sailors who have seen action in the fleet and a large number of Marines from other universities. Uncle Sam, who foots the bills, can send these men wherever he wants them to go. At Carolina they take a few required subjects such as physics and naval science, but major in whatever they choose. Their stay here ranges from two to seven terms. After that comes midshipman ' s school, or for the Marines R.O.C. at Quantico. From these advanced bases they are commissioned second lieutenants in the Marines or ensigns in the Navy, then sent directly into action. If they don ' t measure up at any school along the line they are sent to boot camp to try their hands in an en- listed status. Carolina is only the first rung in the Naval ladder, but the ground work given here is what the rest of a future officer ' s Navy life is based upon. Facial boogey-woogey. 18
