There is a cadet
to the left of Palmer (as we look at the assembled group), but he is Hugh Morgan,
I believe, and I'd say he's in the 1st Row.
If you are referring to anther person on the very very left
side, who knows who or what it is. I could be another cadet
(I see what could be a sleeve, but the plume (Shako) I believe
you might be referring to, I'd say is part of the tree. Having
said that, you usually have five officers in each company (the
CO, XO, and three platoon leaders). The picture clearly shows
only 4 officers.
According to the "Official Register of
Officers and Cadets" For the Academic Year Ending 4 June 1957 (our Cow Year),
the following were Corporals: Bujalski, Conrad, Day, Fay, Herren, Huff, Julian,
Lawton & Palmer.
However, according to this same document, both Conrad
and Smith were discharged from the Academy in January 1957 for deficiency in academics,
so I'd say they could have been in this picture. I there believe, the person I
named as Smith in the picture is probably Jim Waller.
Claradell notes: When I restored the left side of the photo,
I supplied that cadet with a hat. Perhaps I should have placed
a Shako or plume on that person's hat. I noticed that all in
the front row except Wright were wearing plumes. Does that mean
that Morgan's headgear should bear a shako? |
