A ,, rlfhn ,LL PREFACE , From its inception, the Naval Reserve Officers Train- ing Program has existed in order to facilitate the mobilization of the United States Navy in time of national crisis. The program takes qualified civilians between the ages of 17 and 24, provides them with a college degree, and indoctrinates them into the mili- tary way of life. The commissioned officers then serve, at the minimum, 4 years of active duty and 2 years as an inactive reservist. ln this way, the country assures itself of having many of its quality people trained in the arts of the military. As a matter of fact, the NROTC program is very consistent with traditional American concepts of civil! military relationships. Naturally, most Americans ab- hor war and fear a rampant militarism, such as that which once existed in Germany. The idea of the civilian soldier, therefore, has appealed to many Americans because he has promised to defend the national security and yet also prevent a repugnant military bureaucracy. For America today, the importance of defending the homeland from foreign aggression has become even a more crucial function of the national government. It is in this capacity that the Navy serves the country. All who are members ofthe NavyfMarine community have commited themselves to the defense of their country and its democratic institutions. The midshipmen in the battalion have vowed to protect the freedom and liberty of America against all enemies. lt is with pride that we serve our country and pledge ourselves to defend the American way of life.

MAJ Anderson pro- ceded to his new duty as Assistant Speech Writer for Commandant of the Marine Corps. lt is evident by the extent ofhis involvement that the Major's presence will be sorely missed. We only hope that we can continue with his high standards and emulate his outstanding qualities in order that he always remain a part of our unit. ln all phases of life, MAJ Anderson has emphasized correct military conduct, attention to detail, and de- velopment ofa professional military attitude. And yet, he has never let these qualities interfere with his relationship to the midshipmen. Somehow, he has succeeded in spreading his highly contagious enthu- siasm and motivation throughout the battalion of midshipmen. All personnel at Vanderbilt NROTC wish only the best of fortune and smooth sailing for MAJ Anderson in his new duties. Jeff Cares DERSO For all the Vanderbilt midshipmen, both Marine and Navy options, the name of MAJ Gary W. Anderson brings a fondness to mind. He has been a stable, guiding force in all facets of involvement at our unit, exerting his energies in so many of our activities: from being Santa Claus at our Christmas parties to being the grinch at morning remedial PT and haircut in- spection. MAJ Anderson was graduated from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 1975 with a Bachelor of Science in Aeronautics. He is also credited with a M.A. in Public Administration from Pepperdine University. Earning his commission through the Platoon Leader's Class Program, he became a Platoon Commander in the Second Marine Corps Brigade. Subsequently, he became a General Staff Officer at Camp Butler on Okinawa and returning state-side, he assumed the duties of a Marine recruiter in St. Louis, Missouri. Proceding to the First Marine Corps Division, he attained the billet of Company Commander. Then, after attending Amphibious Warfare School, he began his present duty as Marine Instructor at Naval ROTC, Vanderbilt University. THE STAF Q -J sg- f Pl I, X J Pi i Y x J ' ' gf, f if ,. f - f.,--- - L-162 -4 Q 253, L ,M , , v Concerning the unit, COL Phillips is very pleased with its performance. COL Phillips does want to do several things. Initially, he hopes to improve the present overall grade point average from 1.65 to 2.0. He also hopes to increase the number of members in the battalion but says that the job of recruiting will fall mainly on the midshipmen. He does concede that it may be more difficult to increase the numbers at Vanderbilt because it is a private insititution. COL Phillips comments that outside views of the unit are very good, especially concerning personal appearance and service performed. Many people have noticed that COL Phillips sits in most of the naval science classes but, COL Phillips stresses that he sits in on the classes to see what is taught, to act as a second source,and to leam who the midshipmen are. He is very interested in the midshipmen. When asked to comment on the change to a university setting, COL Phillips says that one doesn't treat a midshipman as a sailor or as a marine but as an individual person. Also, at a university, the problems that the midshipmen encounter are different from those of the enlisted man and must be handled with different counseling. COL Phillips looks forward to his tour as CO of Vanderbilt NROTC, and we all warmly welcome him aboard. Ken Allen COLO EL PHILLIP At the beginning of last year, COL Robert Phillips, USMC, took over as commanding officer of NROTC, Vanderbilt University. COL Phillips was born in Pat- terson, New Jersey and attended Springfield College, Springfield, Massachusetts, earning both a bachelor's and a master's degree. COL Phillips was commissioned in June 1957 through the Platoon Leader's Class program and has served in a variety of command and staff assignments. Since then his staff experience includes: adjutant of a squadron, infantry battalion, regiment and Force headquarters: staff officer on the staff of the Commander in Chief, Pacific, Aide to Deputy Chief of Staff, Plans and Programs, Headquarters, Marine Corps and as as- sistant Chief of Staff, G-1 of an infantry division. COL Phillips' command experience includes: command ofa Marine Detachment aboard an aircraft carrier, com- mand of a rifle company, infantry battalion, head- quarters battalion and most recently as the command- ing officer, Camp Fuji, Japan. Combat experience includes a tour as an advisor to a Vietnamese Army battalion and division. On a family note, COL Phillips married the former Paula Deubel. The Phillips' have four children, James, a graduate of Duke University, David, a junior at Virginia Military Institute, Cathleen, a sophomore at Vanderbilt University: and Robert, a graduate of Frank- lin High School, Franklin, Tennessee. X lip 5 'Z al C Commander Richard S. Peterson, a native of Michi- gan, has been executive officer of Vanderbilt NROTC since his arrival in 1979. After his graduation from the Illinois Institute of Technology with a B.S. in psy- chology, he has had a most varied and interesting CBYQCY. He was CIC officer aboard the USS O'Bannon lDD 4505 in Pearl Harbor, OPS officer aboard the USS William C. Favre lDD 763l, and XO of the PBR in Vietnam. After his duty in Vietnam, Commander Peterson earned a masters degree in oceanography from the Naval Post Graduate School. He then served time in Command and Control at the Pentagon and as XO aboard USS Fairfax County. Commander Peterson is highly respected in the unit for his professional knowledge concerning the naval service. He and his wife Judy presently have one son, Richard, LT HGEY 1 A 1 4 M DER PET ERSO Lt Jim Hoey, who served on the unit staff for slightly over two years as third class advisor and instructor, has now been reasssigned to Naval Intelligence Center for Europe and the Atlantic. Before coming to NROTC Vanderbilt, he was grad- uated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a bachelors degree in political science. He then received his commission through the Officers Can- didate School in Newport, RI. Prior duty included a short stint aboard USS William R. Rush KDD 7141 and as DCA and Gunnery Officer aboard USS Voge IFF 0147j. While at Vanderbilt, Lt Hoey not only taught Ameri- can Military History but also advised the unit publi- cati ons organizations, Crosscurrents, and Galleon. On his duty here, he comments that he is proud to have had the opportunity to have some impact, however SmT2:l, on the future leadership of the Navy. e battalion wishes Lt Hoey the best of luck in hiS new command. LT ROW LT Ed Rowe, likewise, has just finished a two-year stay at Vanderbilt. He served here as fourth class advisor and instructor in which role he taught Fresh- man Naval Orientation and, for a while, Ships En- gineering Systems. He was graduated in 1976 with a bachelors degree in chemistry from the University of Mississippi, where he had participated as a midshipman in the NROTC unit. After spending temporary duty as Supply Officer at his alma mater, LT Rowe was sent to Surface Warfare KSWOSJ and Damage Control Schools. A His first sea duty was spent as DCA and CIC aboard the destroyer tender USS Piedmont. Next, he was transferred to the aircraft carrier USS America QCV 661. After four eventful years at sea and two ashore, LT Rowe has decided to resign his commission in the active Navy. He plans to enter the Reserve force and to continue his work toward a masters degree from Vanderbilt's Owen School of Business Management. All at Vanderbilt wish the best for LT Rowe in his new CBYCBT. '-am' 1 LT LAMB ERT l.T Vince Lambert arrived at the unit in the spring of 1981 and has since served as third class advisor and as fourth class instructor. Also, one of his chief duties as the sole nuclear-trained officer at the unit is to promote midshipmen interest in the Navy's nuclear power pro- gram. LT Lambert graduated with bachelors degrees in both mathematics and physics from the Rose-Hull- man lnstitute of Technology. After completion of Nu- clear Power School in Orlando, FL and Prototype Reactor Training, he was sent to Submarine School in New London, CT. He then served four years as a member of the Blue Crew of USS John Marshall QSSBN 6111. While serving at Vanderbilt, LT Lambert is also completing courses for a degree in management. He will remain at Vandy for probably another year and then plans to head back to sea as department head aboard another submarine. ln addition to his regular office duties, LT Lambert also works closely with the Blue Angels, the Mariners, and Windjammers in organizing social events and productions. Y' I GYS GT WARNER Gunnery Sergeant Warner is the assistant marine option instructor. In this role, he serves as chief drill instructor for the battaliong he works very closely with the battalion staff, the color guard, and drill team to insure proper movement and coordination on the parade field. In these respects, he is probably the most visible staff members to most midshipmen. In addition, he finds time in his busy schedule to work with the RiflefPistol and the Orieneteering Teams. This was his first year at Vanderbilt, and he says that although Nashville is a big change from San Diego, he very much enjoys working here. if-r V ft N, ,ole-4 QMC FRANSCISCO Chief Quartermaster Franscisco is the bookkeeper at Vanderbilt. He has served two years here so far and plans to remain until retirement. He enlisted in the Navy in 1960 and has spent time on a multitude of ships - destroyers, escorts, a mine sweeper, and a LPH. Because of the wealth of experi- ence he has acquired in his different tours of duty, Chief Franscisco is well known to most midshipmen for his funny yet true-to-life sea stories. Chief Franscisco is married and has a small daugh- ter: he and his family live on a farm outside Nashville where, he says, they enjoy country living. YNC CRGCKER Chief Yeoman Crocker is the only other submarine- qualified personnel at the unit. His duty at Vanderbilt is to serve as administrative asssistant in the unit office. After his initial enlistment in 1963, Chief Crocker served for a while in the Supreme Allied Command in the Atlantic Theater. Then, he was transferred to the USS Woodrow Wilson CSSBN 6241 where he served on the Blue crew. Next, he worked as Central Mailroom Supervisor at Chief of Naval Operations. Later, Chief Crocker went on to Northern Virginia Community College where he acquired an associate degree in business adminstration. He came to Vanderbilt in 1980 after completing duty aboard USS Alexander Hamilton QSSBN 617j. He is noted for his efficient and hard-working atten- tion to duty. 1 l l SKC HU FF Storekeeper Chief Kevin Huff has just completed his first year at Vanderbilt NROTC. His many responsibil- ities include the issuance and purchasing of uniform items, the disbursement of subsistence checks, and the maintaining of official purchase records for the unit. Chief Huff's prior experience in the Navy includes service aboard an LST, and aboard the USS Rourke, a fast frigate off the Pacific Coast. He recently spent last summer at Camp Pendleton aiding the Marine Corps in its phase of CORTRAMID 2nd class cruise for midshipmen. Because of his ef- ficient pursuit of duty, he became an honorary Marine gunnery sergeant. m L- vs NNIE DICKERSON Mrs. Jennie Dickerson has worked as a secretary in the administrative office since 1962. ln her twenty years of devoted service to Vandy NROTC, she has seen scores of both midshipmen and officers enter the ward room of West Side Hall. Mrs. Dickerson was presented in September 1982 an official award for her work in the Federal government. Also at this award ceremony. COl. Phillips made her an honorary mem- ber ofthe Vanderbilt staff by bestowing upon her one of the unit windbreakers. Mrs. Dickerson is noted for her quiet yet attentive dilligence to her work. COL Phillips conceded that she is responsible for maintaining the administrative office ANNIE JARRETT The 1981-82 school year was Ms. Jarrett's first year at Vanderbilt. She is responsible for typing official correspondence and helping with general paperwork. She has worked hard in leaming the many complexities of her new duties. Ms. Jarrett states that she enjoys the challenge Of working at Vanderbilt and that her job is facilitated by the fact that she is associated with quality personnel. in ship-shape condition. i1EAl'aH'Vul.ii.L.i Vw 0' THE B TTALIO A ,.'f,wfmz'f.4W,x 'ff :V Q-WX,-I nfw' ' -,,v:,U,, .0-.

FRESH INDOCTRINATIO This year's freshmen were very eager to get to Vanderbilt and begin life as college students. ln partic- ular, they were eager to begin life as NROTC midship- men. This new experience began with freshmen indoc- trination one August morning about 9:00 AM. Not knowing what lay ahead for the next four days, the freshmen fell under the leadership of the battalion officers. Many believed the four days would pass quickly and easilyg others later changed their minds. Many things had to be done during indoctrination: thus the days were extremely long and tiring. The average day began between 4:30 and 5:00 AM. The freshmen woke up to such various forms ofexercises as calesthenics one day, a simulated PFT another, a circuit course yet on a third day, and a tearing down of bunks on the final day. One midshipman especially found that tearing down the racks was definitely an exercise. ln addition hair had to be cut, forms to get filled out, Vanderbilt and NROTC pictures to be taken, uniforms to be distributed, and lectures to be given, along with many other items of interest. X., N .... ' vy . 'Z v-mg Bl The indoctrination, however, was not all work, work, work. The four squads found a change running an orienteering race, the purpose of which was to become familiar with the campus. The freshmen perhaps saw light at the end of the tunnel on Friday. Friday was the day of the field meet. the skits and the picnic. From there on out, the freshmen knew that they had been accepted into the unit, and that they had earned that right. The indoctrination can be summed up easily. The time allotted was very short compared to what needed to be done, but this was done for a purpose: to help the freshmen learn how to utilize time well. Although the freshmen went through a rough time, they now see that the NROTC unit is quite a good program and that the real life at Vanderbilt is quite different from lndoctrin- ation. Ken Allen if CHANGE of O The Navy and Marine Corps have many traditions. When the commanding officer is relieved and a new commanding officer takes his place at the helm, it is customary to have a change of command ceremony. Vanderbilt University NROTC unit is no exception to this custom. On 30 September 1982 Captain Sidney M. Banks, U.S.N. was relieved of his command by Colonel Robert A. Phillips, Jr., U.S.M.C. The entire battalion was assembled for the ceremony. The uniform was Service Dress Blues. The midshipmen were put through the manual of arms, then Captain Banks addressed his command one last time. He commended the unit on the progress made during his tour of duty and urged-all of the midshipmen to maintain those high standards. During Captain Banks' emotional address,he read the order relieving him. Then Colonel Phillips read his orders and expressed his hope for a successful future for the battalion. After the ceremony was concluded, a reception was held in Alumni Hall. Refreshments were served by the Blue Angels,and everyone enjoyed themselves. Brian Dessart ill 1 I l PFT I would probably miss Captain Banks a lot less if he took the Bear with him. That must be what a lot of midshipmen are thinking when they get out twice a year for the Physical Fitness Test tPFTl- The infamous PFT consists of three events: pullups for pushupsl, situps, and a three mile run. The pullups and situps are done at the unit and the run in Centennial park. lt tends to catch a lot of people out of shape, especially in the spring. But the threat of Remedial PT at 0600 is a prime motivator for many, driving them to do their best. Perhaps there is nobody at the unit who really likes the PFT, but everyone acknowledges the fact that it is the best way of making sure each midshipmen keeps in good physical condition. -rg mf i gk - s s +-CK' .W r . 7 f' Egan?

For those who are athletically inclined, such events as the pushfsit up relay, the fireman's carry, and the Bear Machine have special appeal. On the other hand, those midshipmen who would rather act as spectators than participants especially enjoy the Dizzy-Izzy and the Chariot Race. The competition is fierce but friendly, this year's two winners were Bravo Company ffall semesterl and Charlie Company Qspringl. ,IRC ti ii, N r-f 'gi 1 .-:QM ,,:'i'c 'Wm g C 1, fl-P'-..-a-X qqcv-4-4...gnr we .' 4gqu 'l 4' sifwwes ' . c' A- 34: . q 8 Q J. 5 'ftqlxiisl f It 'r it -.psf X , If , F , C, bg .- iffy X' If A J VY BIRTHDAY The Battalion celebrated the Navy's birthday on October 8 , 1981. Summer whites were worn all day by the midshipmen to honor the day. The oldest and ygungest Navy option midshipmen were given the first pieces of the birthday cake at the ceremony during lab: they were Midn. 1fC William Coleman and Midn. 4fC Caroline Keutel. During the ceremonies MAJ Anderson read an offi- cial message from the CNO, ADM'Hayward, on the importance ofa strong naval power. Also, he recounted the story of the ever-growing close relationship be- tween the Navy and the Marine Corps. Furthermore, he exhorted the midshipmen to continue the highest traditions of excellence for which the Navy has been famous in the past. it -4 F' 'i 4. , Qs! 'Ev F, ,, ff' .ff ff 'sf' 'ff , T . .

C 0 NAVY BALL lmagine if you will, a large darkened room with many beautifully set tables. There are small candles on each table. This large room is divided into an empty rectangle. On the shorter side of the rectangle, located both near and opposite the entrance, are the numerous decorated tables. What is most spectatcular are the centers of the other sides of this imaginary rectangle, to the right are seated the honored guests of various positions and titles. Directly centered opposite this special table is a disply of ice wonder! Carved from blocks of ice are the letters NROTC . A blue light highlights the letters from the greenery arrangement below the letters. Surely as all began to dine, this centerpiece was a main topic of discussion! Next would be how good the dinner of prime beef, vegetables, and cheese cake tasted. After dinner was social time - as well as drink-refill time! Before the band began to play, midshipmen discussed their reactions to the receiving line that was experienced at the onset of the ball. The line was a new learning adventure for both midshipmen and the re- ceivers! The band, led by Tyrone interrupted this social chit-chat period with various versions of popular music. They touched upon songs by James Ingram, Kool and the Gang, Olivia Newton-John, Rick James and more. With the band's steady beat, midshipmen danced until ties were removed, shoes disappeared, and coats lof many male midshipmenj were whisked off. latter Col- onel Phillips departure of coursell. The dance finally wound down around 1:30 A.M. For those who did not partake of the 1982 NROTC Ball, one can only hope that this synopsis intrigues the curious to come next year and share in the spirit of fun that was experienced this year.

Recipient: WARREN ALVIN COLEMAN, III GRGANIZATIONS The Unit Band performed admirably during the 1982-1982 school year, despite a diminishing number of musicians. Band CO's Tom France and Luke Karten did an excellent job of instilling the discipline and musicianship necessary for such a small military band to gain the respect of the unit. In fact, the band was often very useful in maintaining the battalion's ryhthm throughout close-order drills. The band's performances included the Vanderbilt Homecoming Parade, the Ma- rine Birthday and Ball, Fall and Spring Reviews, the Nashville Veteran's Day Parade, and Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

BL E ANGELS A5 a service organization dedicated to aiding the Battalion in its social affairs, the Blue Angels once again managed to perform a magnificent job. Helping to set up and operate such events as the Navy Birthday and Spring Review, the Angels proved to be of in- valuable assistance. To President Christie Haskins, the Battalion gives a hearty Bravo Zulu, girls! ERS The unit's chorale, under the direction of Midn 2fC David Loy. has expanded steadily and rapidly in the three years since its conception. The 1981-1982 school year saw the Mariners performing for the unit at such events as Fall and Spring Reviews, as well as the Formal Naxy Ball. The Mariners also displayed their talents outside the unit by staging performances on Rand Terrace. On this one occasion, they received a particularly warm re- sponse from the audience, despite the freezing temper- atures. ln the annual Athenian Sing Contest held in March, the group acquitted themselves well by a rollicking performance of favorite tunes from the Big Band Era. The Mariners, however, lost a heartbreaker to the Sigma Nu Fraternity, losing by a single point in the balloting. With practically all members returning next year, the Mariners should be able to continue their fine tradition of providing musical entertainment for the unit. i C COLOR GU The purpose of a color guard is to honor the National Ensign, the Marine colors, the Navy colors, and various colors representing the unit. The Vanderbilt NROTC Color Guard served this purpose with excellent ef- ficiency. In the Fall Semester, under the command of Midn Lt JG Kelley Woodroof, the Color Guard marched in the Nashville Veterans Day Parade, participated in a massing of colors on Vietnam Veterans Day, and performed a colors ceremony at the Naval Reserve Center. During the Spring Semester, the Color Guard was under the command ofMidn Lt JG David Gass. The Color Guard participated in the Krewe of Iris during Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Taft McNeal V' , T. 12 DJ MERS This year saw the creation of a new organization, The Windjammer Society. Its purpose is to develop com- radeship and leadership among future naval officers and to increase their knowledge of the U.S. Navy. A steady hand on the helm was provided by Luke Karten as president. The members were initiated in January by the unit's officers in which their knowledge of naval matters by rigorous interrogations were tested. Pres- entations were given to the Windjammers on various subjects such as diving, the surface fleet, and sub- marines. The Windjammers not only heard special lectures but also enjoyed such social events as keg parties and movies. A sailing expedition was planned for the briny deep of Percy Priest Lake. Such get-togethers en- abled Windjammer members to discuss questions of professional military interest and to increase know- ledge of practical naval skills. 1 . ,-g ,YW , ,, S GMBH NT The Crosscurrents staff is a unit organization whose responsibility it is to publish a monthly newspaper.

Although this year's team was inex- perienced due to a shortage of returning upperclassmen, hard work on the part of all took them far in the accomplishment of this mission. Lance Alsheimer and John McBryant, this year's commanders, led the way to a higher level of performance. The Drill Team participated in the Veteran's Day Parade on West End, the Mardi Gras in New Orleans, and the Georgia Tech drill meet. Brian Dessart , in ,A i uw ' 'f F ----,,.... T X.-.

'mul SE PER FIDELIS SUCIETY The Semper Fidelis Society, a brotherhood of highly motivated midshipmen fmainly M.O.'sJ, had an exciting and rewarding year. Soon after the start of classes there was an overnight bivouac at the Fort Campbell combat in a built-up training site. A night under the stars set the pace of the year. Initiation was extremely physical and mentally de- manding, and was carefully administered under the supervision of Gunnery Sergeant Warner. A mock anti- terroist action ofSmyrna Airport was almost foiled, but for the eagle eyes of MAJ Anderson. GEN Haebel Commanding General of Parris Island, took time out in Nashville to give a highly motivated talk in early February. Bill Hess, president of the society, organized other field trips, events and parties, where a good time was had by all. Semper Fidelis was successful in upholding the best traditions of the Marine Corps and in instilling in its members a close comraderie and fellowship.

The pistol team took first place in team competition, and Chuck Benson had the third highest individual score. rankings, yet Jon Hurst managed to capture an excel- lent second-place individual trophy. Gunny Warner, who replaced SSGT Willoughby as AMOI this year, provided great leadership, he sees excellent prospects for next year's team due to the return of many of his shooters. Brian Huddleston v 1 .. I l I n ORIE T EERI G This year the orienteering team enjoyed a fun and diversified training schedule under captain Tim Arnold. The team did PT at least once a week and had a very strong feeling of comraderie. Each session was filled with shouts of UURRGGH! and Ground God! There were old hands and newcomers alike. Four of the team members went to the annual H.M. Smith Field Meet at Auburn University to compete. Top award went to Karen Kohanowich who placed third overall. Keith Harrington and Mike Plaziak pounded the bush and got their feet wet, while Tim Arnold got motivated by the chest deep water wading across the river. r - 'gre 'i - -.. ' . ml. Q' i Us . ..

With LT Lambert coaching the defense and Major Anderson working with the offense, the NROTC team participated in university intramurals. The highlights of the season were the two 9-0 victories over the Air Force ROTC from TSU. and over the Vandy Army ROTC. ln the annual Army-Navy game, the NROTC team's points came from a touchdown pass for QB Greg Garfield to TE Trip McCubrey and a field goal by Brian Brakke. 5 I ll li lg, G xx x 3, ARMY Q t . 5, X Xe.

After winning its first game, the NROTC team played a Vanderbilt Medical School team, Med 3, for the division championship. For the first six innings, both teams fought a hard defensive battle, allowing only four runs apiece. However, Med 3 rallied in the seventh inning, scoring six runs to overcome the spirited NROTC defense, for the final score of 10-4. The softball team deserves a hearty well done for an Overall record of 11-3. GYSGT Warner further de- serves congratulations for his guidance and leadership.

GYSGT Warner, and others were, met by the unit team consisting of Jim Blair, Clavin Craig, Brian Smartt, and others. The final outconie for the game was a defeat at the hands of the midshipmen. The midshipnien just over- powered the staff and ran them ragged. Brian Smartt was constantly open inside for easy layups. He also dominated the offensive and defenisve boards over the smaller staff team. Calvin Craig totally controlled the outside shoot- ing. He put them in the hoop in the faces of the staff opponents. Jim Blair was the battalion's muscle man in the center. Ww P T RONS MR. and MRS. LUTHER L. AIKEN MR. and MRS. GREGORY J. LOCK LCDR and MRS. DUKE D. ALLEN MR-and MRS- DSNALD L- LOY MR. and MRS.

They not only provide books. full tuition, fees, and S100 a month lixing expenses, they also give students an exciting and re- sponsible career after graduation. A career as a Navy Officer. To qualify for one. students have to be strong academically, par- ticularly in science and math. Extracurricular activities help, too. You can play an important role by letting young people know about Naval ROTC Scholarships.
