Army Drill Team Wins
Award from Air Squad
The Army ROTC drill team
won a unanimous decision over
I he Air Force in Tuesday after
noon's drill competition for the
M-Sgt Walter Ledbetter award
Led by Herb West, the Army
unit looked sharp in all phases
of the dull demonstration, par
ticularly in the manual of arms
The losing Air Force team also
put on an outstanding perform
ance which can be shown by the
fact that none of the three judges
gave the Army a large margin of
victory in total points.
Drill Highlight
One of the highlights of the
drill was a stunt by the Air
Force team in which one of their
cadels marched «*ht of rank and
across the field as if he had not
heard a command. The Air Force
leader promptly pulled a pistol
and shot the cadet (with a blank
shell of course) and immediately
announced that the squadron
would accept petitions for a new
drill member.
The Army's win was its first
in the competition since the Led
better award was established last
year. The Air Force was victor
ious in the first contest.
Master Sergeant Walter Allen
is the non-commissioned officer
in charge of the Army drill team.
