In addition to time spent during the school year they are required to spend ap- proximately one month in the fleet each summer. Although this time at sea is filled with a lot of work it also gives the mid- shipmen a chance for some fun and exciting liberty in the U.S. and in many exotic places around the world, such as Japan, Korea, Spain, Italy, and Austra- lia. gps'-1' X A temple near the city of Pusan, South Korea.

The class of 1989 entered the unit this year and as usual they were welcomed into the unit with Freshmen Orientation.

The whole week creates a spirit of camaraderie among the freshmen and also provides them with an excellent manner in which to begin their college career. 17 The PFT - that biannual event that puts the body and mind to the test. Performing a rigorous combi- nation of pushups or pullups, sit- ups, and a three mile run, mid- shipmen prove their abilities. This year the Battalion was blessed with hot and humid conditions in September and snow flurries in April. Many midshipmen pre- pared for the PFT at the Physical Enhancement Program during the fall semester and at Bulldog Prep during the spring semester. As the three mile run begins the mid- shipmen begin to spread out into different levels of ability. MIDN UC Huber likes to Aim High , so to speak.

The final loss was to Minnesota, which resulted in a fourth place finish for the team. They also competed in the Pur- due lnvitational on March 31.

MIDN UC Scott Cade gives LCDR Hartzell a monogrammed ND blanket as a retirement present from the Battalion. The Spring Awards Ceremony was held on 5 May. The ceremo- ny consisted of the normal awar- ding of academic stars and phys- ical fitness awards. In addition to these all time favorites this ceremony had a few new wrinkles such as the retirement of LCDR Hartzell and SKC Darrah and the chastisement of the keeper of the headdress worn by the President of the Semper Fidelis Society. Some Navy Op- tion got a hold of the hat without the knowledge of MIDN UC Pe- ter Bowen, who was in charge of the safety of the hat. This hat was then returned at the awards ceremony where MIDN Bowen was made to wear it in front of everyone.

The Notre Dame Drill Team is only in its second year of existence but has had a very successfull year.

The Captain's in- spection provides the most wor- ry for the midshipmen because the Captain sees everything and will let you know if something is not right. If he sees that someone EPCTIO has really knocked himself out preparing for the inspection he will also note this. Although this is one of the most extensive in- spections nearly everyone works hard preparing for it and as a re- sult everyone looks really sharp just as they should look every- time they wear their uniforms. lCAPT Rohrbough adjusts the cover of a third class mid- shipmen.

Parades, such as this, throughout history have been held to honor troops entering combat, to celebrate great victories, to recognize the achievement of comrades-in- arms, and to honor those fallen in battle. This year Reverand Theodore M. Hesburgh, CSC was the re- viewing officer. In his remarks Rev. Hesburgh congratulated the cadets and midshipmen on having the courage to stand up for God, country and Notre Dame. He also recalled past Notre Dame graduates who had lost their lives in previous wars. Eventhough the weather was cold and dismal the spirit of the occasion was not lost by the mid- shipmen and they were all glad to be a part of the highly tradi- tional parade.

For the upperclassmen it was a good re- view of techniques which they learned in the previous years and for the freshmen it provided valuable training which may help save someone's life some- day. During the two-part Race for Life program taught by the South Bend Chapter of the Red Cross, the midshipmen learned one-rescuer CPR techniques and also learned the methods in which to help someone who is choking. 4 X4 191. ,A .
