later as officers they might pass

Attempts to thwart regulations
caused some amusing incidents.
1t was stipulated, for instance,
that cadet should carry only one
blanket. A number, however, ar
ranged for the secret transporta-

and some even added thick, red
quilts.

They discovered snug corners of
dry barns, warm retreats in half
empty supply wagons, on narrow
blanketed filters in the field am

beds of surprising comfort.
These hidaways from the rain
were deemed out of limits, how
