RZ O. T. C. Unit I
Highly Rated
Presbyterian College Military
Group Given “Excellent” Rat
ing For Fifth Year.
^ —_____
The Presbyterian^ollege 'R. 0. T. C.
unit again received the rating of “ex-
jcellent” by the United States war de-
jpartment in the annual spring inspec-
jtion. Col. J. H.' -Bnockman'^ w'as the
! inspecting officer.
j According to schedule, the inspec-
Ition wa.s conducted on last Tuesday
and Wedne.sday; and the smoothness
and order in which the. whole affair
went off was sufficient to even sur
pass thd^ expectations of those in
charge. The final judgment of the in
spector gave all branches of the work
a rating of “excellent” save one senior
subject, tanks, which received “satis
factory.” This was considerably better
than any other Presbyterian unit has
ever made.
The inspector gave ^ his personal
opinion of the corps when he said this
was the best R. 0. T. C. unit he had
ever inspected; and also, when he
spoke of the attitude of the cadets to
military training. “Each man in the
battalion seenied to put all he had into
the proper execution of the move
ments given him,” he said.
According to the custom in all in-*
spections, the unit assembled early
Tuesday morning on the drill field,
marched in review and was then in
spected by Col. Brockman and the reg
ular officers of the unit. Following
{this, a company from the battalion, a
j platoon from each company, and a
squad from each platoon oxhi^ted va
rious company, platoon and squad
movements Then a war strength pla
toon from all companies went through
a combat problem. All ‘these perform
ances went off excellejitly.
On the next day, representatives
from all the R. 0. T. C. classes took
tests made out by an officer of the
regular army, w'hich covered all class
work of the year.
