UAs you were"- a mom ent 'cous,'­ Think b ack again to d ays that 'wuz'. Your d ays at P . M . C.-those happy d ays, Those d ays to which a song we raise. Your first d ay on the field of d rill, Ah ! yes, the m em ory sweet d oes linger s till, Tha t "Stand up" " H ead and eves to the front" "Chin in " "Sta;;d stead y" yes, you bore the brunt Of Military life- a thing quite new The which taught you what to, and not to d o The d ay you got your rifle, that's the d ay- But alas! Your new-found joy was soon dism ay The "Springfield" cam e to b e the b ane of your exis tence When Militar y Officers showed their insistence That you learned to h andle rifles right And not a m ovem ent in the m anual sli/!ht. R ecall the firs t d ay you walked W ednesday Guard With the "Bully" of a sergeant whom you thought so hard­ They say " the first eight years are the hardest" And m aybe you walked the f arthest, At least you thou ght " If a certain Captain had his way I would s tilI be walking at the Doom of D ay- " " Under arrest i Further orders"; was the report Which showed each m an on the Military Staff a sport You no d oub t thought that was too much, But that was nothing to one known as Who would gladly give another hour The which to show his mighty power !

[ 175] [ 176] "iCaylll't muys" (continued) It was several weeks before you read A Notice on the Bulletin Board which said: "Recruits will be relieved from 'Palms Around' Just as soon as they know their orders sound". Of course you knew them soon-and wasn't it great When they put you On Guard-to show your Room-mate Just how you could keep order and when At the call of your voice to your will they would bend And then when the Corporal called You double-timed to him and maybe learned You were nervous j your orders were balled And you wondered how the privilege of duty you earned! And then with the coming of your First Vacation When you plugged and worked through a week's Examination­ Came the call for Train-time : " Doorway-First Section" "Rooms will not be dismanteled until close of Thurday morning Examination Perhaps you were fortunate (7) enough to leave that evening Or with 'local' others preferred to stay For Friday's "Chapel Service" before leaving! Wasn't it great to receive that "Furlough" Then exchange of best wishes. greetings, and smiles. The time was not long-you were soon on the go! Cares, worries behind you,- and pleasures ahead­ Those were your thoughts as Homeward you sped! Your very first Vacation- and didn't it seem long As the days drifted by with Dinner, Dance, and Song You 'kind a' long'd for the Gray again- With the work and the drill and the Daily Routine Or ):erhaps the praises and words of a "Queen" Urged you back once more to the walls of "Old Main" Then filled with resolutions-so many-so true Of things you would and wouldn't do You returned-reminisced with the boys for a while And soon you were back to work-well under way­ With your hour for classwork, for drill :\Od for play­ You were, as they say, "Covered down in file". A brief pause for Easter Vacation And soon your eyes in a new direction : Government Inspection was the event Where all your attention and effort was bent, And then Inspection over-with an approval stamp­ Anxiously you looked to the week of Camp Out under God's open sky-in woods, in field, Where Life, and Love and Nature appealed, A member of the First Relief-"On Guard" And wasn't it great, even though it seemed hard j Yes and scared just a little j-what a gain You recounted your experiences on return to " Old Main" Commencement Week! Bacculaureate Service, and then Three brief, eventful days until parting of friends j The first, in final preparation f or the days close at hand That were glorified with drill, sham battle and band. Tuesday Evening-President's Reception-last dance of the year With happy and anxious hearts for Commencement so near! Commencement 'Reveille'-and didn't you feel grand? You awoke with a start as they struck up the band, The hours fleeting fast pictured cr()w ds-men and d egrees, Nor could "Pickles and Ice Cream" your hunger appease. Brief taking of leave: Classmate, Comrade, Messmate and Friend­ Sham Battle-Commencem ent Parad e-Goodbye,-The End! GEORGE W . WESTERMAN, '29
