250 Tons Of
Ammunition
"Making sure that the ammo is
a it in or he ad an no he
cadets for the ammo" in the
words of CCA's Ammunition Offi-!
cer Chief Warrant Officer Harry
J. Ducote Jr. is the hardest parti
of providing the ROTC Summer:
Camp with ammunition.
The Ammunition Section is re
sponsible for drawing the ammu
nition for all of the firing at the
Summer Camp but its real task
is in breaking it down so that
the right amount of the right kind
of ammunition arrives at the right
range at the right time.
During the six weeks of the
camp the Ammunition Section
will have supplied approximately
250 tons of ammunition for such
varied weapons as mortars roc
ket launchers rifles and machine
guns.
Even when all the shooting is
over the mission of the Ammuni
tion Section is not ended for it
is also responsible for the residue
ammunition collecting shells and
loose rounds and segregating
blank from live ammunition.
"It is hard to exaggerate the
importance of a consciencious saf
ety outlook when working with
ammunition yet handling ammu
nition is the safest thing in the
world provided it is handled prop
erly "Mr. Ducote said. At a hold
ing-area closely guarded at night
the ammunition is distributed into
trailers each of which will be
sent to a particular range.
In addition to Mr. Ducote who
has been working with ammuni
tion for over eleven years the
CCA Ammunition Section consists
of ten enlisted men who have
been given the responsibility of
seeing to it that the ammo is in
deed waiting for the cadets.
