THE CCDMMAN AN Colonel Moore, Western Military Academy '21, is a colorful personality in the modern Western tradi- tion. His twoscore and three years of active service with the regular army and the ROTC unit at Western have associated him with every phase of recent Western history. His professional life has been Western: Cadet, Tactical Officer, Commandant, PMST. He has quali- fied himself for unusual service to his Alma Mater. Colonel Moore has lived a colorful life with many facets, a regular army commission as Colonel, a nationally-known small arms expert and an expert marksman, a lecturer, a director of tours, and an expert in military organization. He, despite his greying temples, is still as youth- 'ful as the cadets he serves. His daily association with boys has endeared him to generations of Western Cadets. THE COMMANDANTS STAFF ,iv-wg. Col.
