ROTC cadets get opportunity to fire arms
Several of the Tarleton
State University Army ROTC
cadets were recently given an
opportunity to step up to the firing
line and fire a series of weapons
representing American and
foreign technology from the early
1800s to the present.
Many of the members of
Tarleton's Texan Battalion, a
proud part of the 5th Brigade's
Apache Brigade, had never fired a
high-powered rifle or pistol before
the exercise held at the Texas
National Guard's training site at
Camp Bowie. By the end of the
day, all the cadets had gained
some firing experience while
others were given the opportunity
to qualify the Army's M1911 .45
caliber pistol on a combat pistol
range with the winner receiving a
trophy.
The Texan Battalion's
cadets and the unique opportunity
of firing several rounds -from a
multitude of weapons Used by
both military forces and civilians
over the past century.
Coordinated by Tarleton's
Assistant Professor of Military
Science, Master Sergeant Leon
McMullen, the historical live-fire
provided cadets with first-hand
knowledge and experience of the
operating characteristics of basic
infantry small-arms.
Before being allowed to
fire a weapon, each cadet received
a safety briefing and an
operational description of the
weapon to be fired. The weapons
fired included a Mini-14 rifle,
Chinese SKS 7.62 assault rifle,
.22 caliber high standard pistol,
M1911 .45 caliber pistol, a
German Heckler and Koch semi-
automatic rifle, a 9mm CZ-75
Czechoslovakian para-pistol, a 9
mm Glock pistol, a .300
Winchester magnum rifle, .44
magnum Ruger Super Hawk
pistol with scope and a M1903A3
Remington 30.06 rifle. Numerous
small caliber American-made
hunting rifles and pistols were
also fired in addition to a .45
caliber black-powder rifle
commonly used by "mountain
men" in the early 1800s.
"The first-hand
experience with these historical
weapons provides a memorable
perspective on the development of
small-arms technology," said
Major William Brown, chairman
of the Military Science
Department at TSU. "In addition
to illustrating the evolution of
these various weapons cadets gain
the added insight of placing these
arms in period context as they
study military history in our
military science curriculum."
Following the live-fire,
cadets competed against one
another on Camp Bowie's combat
pistol range. Each cadet was
given 30 rounds of .45 caliber
ammunition with which to engage
30 pop-up targets during a timed
sequence. Many cadets found the
M1911 .45 pistol to be heavy and
somewhat inaccurate as compared
to the many 9mm pistols fired that
day. It certainly proved to be
more of a challenge than they had
imagined.
Only a few cadets
habitually hit targets at the 30
meter range. Despite their
relative lack of success on this
weapon, all enjoyed the
competition, especially junior
cadet Jasen Graham of Fort Worth
who won with 28 hits out of
possible 30. ,
Members of Tarleton's
Military Science cadre say they
plan to repeat the historical live-
fire exercise next fall. They hope
to feature additional weapons in
the future, especially a flintlock
musket and a muzzle-loading .58
caliber rifled musket from the
Civil War era.
Tennis..... Baseball.... Rodeo
Each school is awaiting the
committee's decision on who will
be seeded in the top four. The
committee is consisting of tennis
coaches from Hardin-Simmons,
Howard Payne, and Austin
College.
Tarleton's next duel match-up
will be this afternoon against
Midwestern University.
The win moved Tarleton's
record to 18-8-2 while Howard
Payne went to 23-10. Tarleton is
ranked 18th in the latest NAIA
baseball poll. TSU is ranked sec-
ond in District 8 and Howard
Payne is third.
TSU rough stock riders, Shane
Sanders and Matt Stanley, also
did well at Big Spring. Sanders
rode Holiday In in the first round
of bareback riding to split second,
third and fourth place with a score
of 69. He also placed fourth in
the average with a total of 129.
Stanley scored 68 points in'the
second round for fourth place.
Tarleton's men team is
currently ranked third in the
Southwest Region.
