Immediately upon stepping from their cattle trucks, drill sergeants had verbally assaulted each and every new soldier. Now, standing in a small formation of twenty recruits, three more drill sergeants in “Smokey Bear” hats and screwed-up faces continued the harangue. None of these recruits even understood for what reason they were being victimized. Suddenly, the crisp, shrill notes of a bugle pumped over the loudspeaker. The drill sergeants stiffened. One of them took a deep breath and bellowed, “Platoon –- Parade, Rest! Present, Arms!” Twenty awkward arms snapped in salute to an unseen flag in a ceremony few, if any, understood. I was one of those recruits. No one ever told me the meaning or function of those bugle calls that I heard throughout my time in basic training. Seven years later, that was still the case. With the exception of the morning and evening flag ceremonies, the bugle calls heard on Fort Sill, Oklahoma and Fort McCoy, Wisconsin – while identical – still remain a mystery.

Volunteers took on many tasks that weekend including program presentation, working the Visitor Center, counting visitors, and working behind the scenes in the Magic Room. A special thanks to Dee Young and Brenda Boehm for heading up cooking in the Mess Hall kitchen! This year 90 volunteers contributed 1,508 hours for 547 visitors. Thanks to group volunteers including the Holmes Brigade, 4th Missouri Cavalry, Northwest Arkansas Historical Education Association, and the Western Bluecoats Field Hospital, Inc. I also appreciate all the individual volunteers helping with numerous living historical impressions, visitor center work, and counting visitors. HISTORIC SITE Our annual park survey is coming up in June. Fort Scott National Historic Site FORT SCOTT NATIONAL participates in this servicewide program (developed for the Government Performance and Results Act) to measure visitor satisfaction and visitor understanding of the significance of the park they are visiting through a visitor survey card. We lost two of our key players in handing out surveys with Herb and Sandra Haimerl moving to Colorado. Please give me a call if you are willing and able to assist with this important task. Two special individual and group volunteers were recognized at the regional level. Susan Anderson earned the George Hartzog Youth Volunteer Award and the Nevada High School Advanced History Class earned the George Hartzog Volunteer Youth Group Award.
