September 23rd & 24th, 2006      

The WWII re-enactment group of the China Marines from Indianapolis were out this past weekend to help the Cadets hone their knowledge and personas of WWII soldiers. The rain and cold did not deter their camp event. The schedule for new recruits included lectures on Rations, Sanitation and Hygiene, How to build your persona for Living History events, the M1919 Air Cooled .30 cal, Field-Stripping the M1, a session of Firing Blanks, and viewing of old war movies capped their Sat night activities. The old salts from the Marine company are anxious to return in May for our timeline event on campus.
