The hill we all aspired to conquer actually has a double

meaning. In a more global sense, we are physically located on a hill at the base of the Rocky Mountains, rising above Colorado Springs. But in a more personal sense, there were many smaller hills to climb before graduation was reached. We not only had the academic challenge, but the military and athletic sides also took a bite from our time. Each of these hills presented a climb that turned a 24 hour day into a needed 30 hour day. We reached down deep for the energy to

climb this hill and live the academy experience. After four

years, although some failed climbing, the majority of us can say it happened on the hill.

merely a way of keeping the cadets in touch with the operational Air Force and gain an appreciation for our sister service, the Army. On one Friday of every month, cadets, faculty, and other military personnel dressed in their finest fatigues, BDU’s, and flight suits.

Well,

might tremble just thinking about the high demand, memorization, and front-end loaded academics required to fly this Cessna

172 equivalent. Well once you read the entire sylabus

through a few times the rest comes through practice. An ''IP” once asked me "Can you actually believe some cadets are terrified to come fly because they are intimidated by their 'IPs?’” I said yes. I was lucky enough to get an IP who admits flying is meant to be fun. I was actually afraid that I was going to get airsick everyday but I soon learned that flying is fun ...

and even turbulant afternoon flying can’t

be beat. I became the cocky little F-15 pilot to

be.

Once in the aircraft, the student pilot is expected to

perform checklists, approaches, and maneuvers

under the careful scrutiny of his instructor. Wall charts keep track of the progress of each class. Some flights, plus a solo and a checkride are required for completion.

lives of the cadets.

Filling positions within the squadron comparable to those they will be assigned to in

the real Air Force, seniors learn to

lead their subordinates and their contem-

privileges that underclassmen only dream about (or possess illegally). These include televisions (with or without cable), better

responsibility. Firstclassmen are required to make uniform and regulation violation corrections

friends alike. While this isn’t easy, by their last year, most Firsties understand the need to uphold standards in the wing.

Rank has its awards and its privileges, but Firstie rank

means one thing: come Spring, they have less hours left than the 4 degrees have days. Come summer, they-

again. Congratulations and best of luck to this year’s Firstie gods, the Class of 1989.

The Soar For All program provides a chance for cadets who love to fly and will not be able to become pilots, or navigators or cadets who just want to fly as often as possible, to upgrade and become IP’s. Instructor pilots are afforded many opportunities to fly including the ASK high-performance glider. The price of being an IP is very high. Time is required of every IP and upgrader, leaving them with little free time. IP’s find the sacrifice worth it.

Everything considered, the Soar For All program is an excellent program.

ship. In addition to these majors, there are several classes offered which provide good

background on motivation, leadership and personality. Human Factors Engineering is the major that I have chosen. It is an enjoyable major. Many people like to take it because it is a mix between the "fuzzy” and the technical

majors. It is a rude awakening for many when they realize that the B. S. department requires the major to include a

year long statistics course. Human Factors is a growing concern

our

world, since more and more, the human is

becoming the limiting factor within systems.

Because of this, there is

growing need for Human Factors Engineers in many different areas.

Some of the more interest-

ing classes offered by the B. S. Department are biological psychology, learning and social psychology. In biopsych, students

learn about the brain and how it works, We even did brain surgery on a live rat. In

learning, the stu-

Soon we were into our senior design courses. In EM 460, we learned the importance of the mighty strain gauge and used for other methods testing. This class came to be known as "Nightmare on Mech Street" starring Maj. "Freddie" Bannaerman, but we were able to persevere and get a lot of hands-on experience.

The "Mech" Department is filled with many realistic instructors who know what a good time is all about. They were always willing to put in the effort as long as we were.

My memories of the good times that I shared with my friends at USAFA will always be importent. Although I hated getting out of bed every day, my four years left me with some valuable experiences. I want to thank all of the close friends that I have made through the years. I probably would have never made it through this place without the support of Mom, Dad, Richy, Chris and my sponsors.

Opportunities present themselves equally to everyone; How willing are you to take ad-

vantage of them? Through difficult times, we have to turn to internal strength. But don’t

MACH ONE he class of '89 hadn't been three

r degrees we

in Mach 1 for long when noticed the motto inscribed on all

of our patches on our athletic jackets. It

reads, “First takes care of it's own."

several years had passed since any class before us had noticed it.

Apparently

The idea of covering someone's tail when his back was turned sounded better than mon

stabbing him. Sounds like com-

sense? Well, it was a revolutionary

idea in Mach 1. We've grown pretty our

tight during

three years in first, and we'll all miss

the familiar sounds that echoed up and

down the hallways, like the utterances of our resident Arnold Schwarzenegger

who so

recently metamorphosed into Freddy Krueger. Well, we're out of here. Good luck to you,

class of '90. DOMINE DIRIGE-

from all the players. Parties with Fightin' Fourth proved to be a bad idea. However, in an attempt to

other like came

together during our many social

functions during which we repeatedly, humiliatingly, pathetically beat Third

Squadron in any and all displays of physical competition we could think of. But we're sure Serge will get over it. We also can't forget all the fun we had preparing

for Stan Eval (even the second time around). At least we had the freshmen to make up for all of it

through their exemplary performance during Knowledge Bowls. But overall, the squadron really made a "team effort" and we certainly cannot forget all the fond memories. To the class of '89

salute you

and so what if maybe it hasn't all been worth it. The end is here.

BULL SIX

hank goodness; Six is on its long

road of reform! From a bogus, training hellhole to a fair, livable atmos-

phere. Our new AOC Maj Paul Williams, is definitely a step in the right direction. Every squadron has to rid itself of its bad apples, and we patiently waited

two

years for

justice. This year's

squadron was a much better "leadership laboratory" for all of us. As far as good times went, we left mark! The Pig Roast was wild, we had our own "game show" with the Las

our

Vegas giveaway, Elvis joined the wing, and our car rallies will never be forgot-

(Colorado Springs restaurants will make sure of that!) We always knew we

ten

the Tug-O-War kings, and Fifth squadron made us prove it. For all of you with bets riding on were

staying unhitched, be strong. Those first assignments to Iceland and Guam can be pretty lonely. As for the squad, '90, you can have it, it's all yours! Bull Six '89er's are primed to go, and we're ready to keep the skies safe for democracy.

VICKING NINE inth squadron, known as Viking Nine I was formed in 1958. The Viking Nine patch is simple yet striking in design. The patch is composed of a Viking ship and the sun. The sun is rising, and providing light for the new rising of the Viking. The ship is composed of two parts: the sail and the dragon shaped bow. The sail is full and propelling the ship towards its goals. A large number nine is displayed on the sail's red and white background, portraying the squadron's intramural colors. It informs all others that Viking Nine is sailing forward. Dragon heads were used by the Vikings as an inspiration of strength and ferocity to the Viking crews, and as a warning to others of their coming. Our dragon also is a show of strength and ferocity. It warns others that the Vikings are coming. The nine shield corresponds to the squadron number and also reminds us that although we are strong, we will be called upon to work together to defend our goals. The four class colors are used in the

patch design. The other bright colors and the unusual shape contribute to the striking appearance of the patch. They serve to make the patch unique and distinguishable among the other patches in the wing.

TIGER TEN

ust

got

back

from

AOC's lawn and

mowing the thought I would

write a few words about Tiger Ten. The

only bad thing about being in this squadron is that all the very best people kept going to group and wing. Mom really took care of us. Just kidding, Capt Chine was instrumental in molding us into quality officer material, well most of us. She always knew what we were doing. There was no fooling her (scary). A few slipped through the cracks. Who can forget the dynamic duo of crock and scruffy. We were a loving squadron (some more than others)-right J? Many of us got a lot of practice skating on thin ice. It only seems like a lifetime ago that we came here, but alas we are done. We learned a lot, and experienced a lot. There's enough stories to fill a volume of an encyclopedia. In the end we made it. Good or bad we'll always re-

member the times we had here. Happy trails to you

REBELEVEN

he Rebels of Rebeleven have

continued the tradition in making your squadron closest to the Barber shop. We tried to be closest to the C-store but missed it by a floor. However, we did accomplish our goals of lots of MWR activities, maintaining Rebel Heaven and keeping the dean off our back. As a squadron, we worked well together, played hard and ate lunch together. As we all go off on separate roads, who can help glancing back to those immortal moments of our past year. Those wonderful, unique, training, social functions at the Hammer's.

This year

we reached new plamilitary excellence. We escaped the golden flow test despite the MWA inspections. And though we weren't always first in all activities, we consistently dominated neighboring squadrons though they may think

teaus in

it "dozen't" matter. As a class, we worked well together and graduated

together.

a voice bellowed the bottom line for the BULLDAWGS: “Come to the edge". The

Dawgs responded somewhat appropriately to this challenge finishing in the latter edge within the group although 2nd group finished first in the wing on the front edge. The class of '89 was blessed with the

challenge. New people in charge, new people to follow, and a new squadron the philosophy to comprehend “slugs" showed the squadron how it should be done and done right. Within this fine leadership laboratory environ—

COBRAS he fourteenth

squadron Cobras part of the Cadet Wing since 1959. In the tradition of spirit and unity, they wear their squadron patch with pride. This patch was designed in 1969 when the Cobras took on their new nickname. Its appearance is a striking one with the bright gold and orange snake reared up in ferocity to repel a swift jet aircraft, and the black outline and white background outline the action effectively in a unique rounded trapezoid shape. The Cobra was chosen for its speed and ability, and it reminds the squadron to maintain wariness for

CHICKEN HAWKS

he Chickenhawks have had a suecessful year overall. We met most

of our squadron goals, especially during the fall semester, when we finished in the top 10 for group every month, none

of our freshman joined honor guard, and best of all, representatives from all classes met MRCs. Plans for the future include graduation for all firsties and nobody on next semester's group or wing staff. We're also thinking of putting a cash bar in the

study room, since we never use it, except for housing the microwave and the Coke machine that gives out free Cokes (oops!). We are eagerly looking forward to

meeting our new, career-oriented AOC he'll be in for a surprise. From all of us firsties, we hope that the rest of the —

squadron continues to keep things, in perspective, never forgetting to have a good time, and to include in the squadron ops plan, military goals that are at least as equally worthless as ours.

STALAG # t's been four long, hard years of grabbing ankles, riding it out, and

hanging on minute by minute. Stalag has had its fair share of casualties as well. Of this includes the five different AOC's in the span of only four years. We've always made sure they weren't course

around long enough to catch on to what was going on behind their backs. Our education has been, by no leap of the imagination, free. We've earned it. Yet, the most important part of our education never came from our instructors

droning endlessly in a monotone chant within the dull, colorless rooms of Fair-

child Hall. The lessons we learned from each other as classmates and friends are the most significant. We will always remember. As we part ways to start our lives again, the good times and the bad, the adventure and the boredom, the agony and the ecstasy will remain with us guide our way. To the Class of '89

now.

further notice. With the class of '89 in charge of the Squad we have placed a greater emphasis on fun (through discipline, of course)

this year. If we are to be remembered for anything, we'd like it to be for our

military bearing. Of course, this is not likely to happen. Most people will remember our outrageous parties, our incredible strength on the athletic fields, and our unstoppable road rally trout mobile. "If you've ever visited our squadron you may get the impression that we're a bunch of rebels. Well, this is ob-

viously not true since there are no rebels at the Academy. Are there? We're just a close bunch of mutant college kids trying to serve our country the only way we

know how. Hey,

attitude and

new

AOC, Maj

"Mick" Erdle. After spending two years as the doormat of second group, the Trolls set their sights on winning squadron

of the month at least once, and get-

ting an "outstanding" in Stan/Eval. With the combined effort of all four classes the Trolls

won

the

squadron

of the

month for September. Twentieth squadron also boasts the individual athletic accomplishments of its members. Academically the Trolls are hoping to continue the tradition of finishing in the top ten in the wing. The Trolls have also been improving relations within the classes with events such as tailgate parties, a Dining In, and inter-class competitions, with a trip to Farrish, and ski

trips in the future. With the cooperation of all four classes the '88-'89 Tough Twenty Trolls have created a squadron that knows how to have a good time, and still sue-

cessfully complete the mission.

BLACKJACK Squadron r Twenty-first originally he

Cadet formed in the fall of

was

1961. The original squadron a

diamond

shape with

patch was

blue

back-

ground on top and a white backround over crossed swords, and at the bottom of the patch was a blue wreath bearing the words "21st Squadron". In the Spring of 1963 a new patch was chosen as the official squadron patch. The patch is loaded with symbolism. The ace and jack of spades forms a Blackjack, which is the squadron nickname. At a higher level the cards signify the winning combination of skill, spirit, ability, and fellowship. It is hoped that these qualities will be formed in the men and women of Blackjack, and carried over into their careers as officers. The green background of the patch is a mixture of blue and yellow, commanded when the

patch was adopted. The squadron motto is "21 In There", and 21 certainly is "In There" with such distinguished graduates as Rhodes Scholar John Ausink and Bart Holaday, and All-Americans Jack Hudson in pistol and Jim Murphy in track.

TARANTULAS

adet Squadron 22 has had a

dy-

namic year. Led by our enthusias-

tic AOC, Major Mike Nichols, the squa-

dron's latent potential has blossomed. The firstclassmen set the example with tremendous leadership staffs. The

squadron commanders of both semesters led the squadron to group rankings unheard of in recent Tarantula history. Firsties of 22 truly embodied the drive and ambition of the Tarantulas. The zeal of the secondclassmen lent itself to a surge of squadron morale

and spirit. Their vibrancy and life kept the

squadron going through

"down" weeks. The new thirdclassmen

many

the squadron immediately adopted the "Tarantula" way of life. Squadron 22 will in

definitely benefit from this class over the next two years. The fourthclassmen came into the

squadron and immediately infused the rest

with their fresh energy and

willingness to work hard. Keep your eyes on the Tarantulas and remember: DISCIPLINE BREEDS HAPPINESS!

BARNSTORMERS

he Barnstormers started the year

off with a new AOC, and even though he was Army he was prepared for the job. We had our best year ever. We showed

our excellence by taking "squadron of the month" four times and also by staying on top in intramural

competition. This may sound spartan, but the

stormers

knew how

work

hard and play hard, from the Road Rally to

the Dining In to 100th's Night. Phil

was

our

chief bartender this

year, upholding the bartending 23 tradition. From Utah to 100th's Night our

lamp was lit. Dating was another favorite pastime of ours. Making the scene were such lovely couples as Larry and his shadow Nancy, Joe and Sid, Mo and Paul

(the Kasuda's), and Steve and Mary. Ineluded in the Senior Citizens Club were Mark, Pat, Connie, and Tony. All 24 seniors made up quite a diversified group

that led the Barnstormers to a tremendously successful year.

PHANTOMS WM /hat a year! What an experience! ww

The 1988-89 school year is his-

tory!!! For the class of '89 it's off to the REAL AIR FORCE (whatever that is?)and for the other three classes it's time to

take just one more step up the four year hierarchical ladder. Despite this parting, the last few years have

brought some

great memories. First are the memories of

events

which

overall

helped shape “Academy Experience". Events like the Road Rallies, the Dublin get togethers, our

the Spirit Bus on the Terazzo, the "no

pride" weekends, the road trips to Florida and KC and of course the Dl skits. Even more important than these events,

though, are the people we've known. Memories, memories and

memories!!! We'd like to thank all those

that have given us support through these LONG four years. May the memories of all we've shared never die. Good

luck and God Bless to every Phantom

past, present and future.

REDEYE LJ ow do we express in mere words t our Academy experience? It

goes much beyond that. It was ubiquitous, and in order to fully comprehend

that

one

ments

understand the rudidiscipline. These funda-

must

mentals of discipline were so deeply instilled that no stress or strain shall erase them. First and foremost this discipline was enforced by Clint (without whom we'd have got our asses shot off in some faraway land), the Rexicon, late movies, pencil productions, Hal Cranmer (who put the fine in 89), and generally ubiquitous behavior. By demonstrating the basic tenants of leadership (performing in a profi-

cient, orderly, military manner), have proven

all

(after deep soul-searching) that we have truly made to

some

smooth transition from BCT. So smooth in fact, that kudos were had by all. Other than discipline (and Clint, of course), the only thing that helped us through was the god of partial credit... Thank you for your support. a

he Thunderbirds of two seven have shared many memories over

well as upperclassmen, but we have en-

dured through it all. We even survived all the social events including the Em-

bassy parties and the two Lubbock trips. probably the first squadron to have endless amounts of athletic ability and yet not win a wing championship, at least to this point in time. Here are a We're

few quotes for you to remember what we

had to put up with in the squadron.

"Hey Carp, how many of those stories you told were true?" "Sully, how are

those Reds and

Bengals doing?"

"Vince, give me the stats on the '67 Dodgers." "Hey Leemon, how many computers do ya have now?" "Did you outgrow that teddy bear of yours Pills?" "TC, did you ever get your truck back?" "Jean, how's that soccer coming ever

along?" To each one of you, the best of luck in the future.

MAGPIES lii/ell, it's finally 1989 and the senWW iors of 28 are ready to join the long blue line in the “Real Air Force". For three years we have lived together, studied together, laughed and cried together, complained together and dreamed together. For so many months there was not even a glimmer of light at the end of the cadet tunnel but alas, fi-

nally we have made it. We were glad to welcome a new AOC, Capt Gary Burg. His open and

genuinely concerned style of leadership helped us run the squadron with relative ease. We hope next year the classes in the squadron take advantage of his expertise in leading others. Our class has become so close within these last years that it will be bittersweet to part. Where will we go for advice on relationships, ailments, worries

and on Friday night without each other? Oh well, we are really on our own now.

May God bless every member of the Class of 1989 as we embark on the "beginning" of our lives.

C ontinuing

det Squadron brought the "Grim Reaper" to the Air Force Academy in 1968.

The Squadron insignia depicts the Grim

Reaper, the symbol of death. The grim reality of death, represented by the grim reaper, serves to remind us that we are members of the Armed Forces, who have pledged our very lives to the service of

our

country. This presence is

what constitutes the major difference in our tasks as

military officers over careers

in other fields. Even in the face of death we are

unified in our efforts.

ROADRUNNERS he cadets of CS-32 have established strong friendships and great traditions which make us unique in the wing. Although the Roadrunners are number one in the wing for academics, we still know how to have fun! The OIC and SOD will never forget our covert late night squadron dance parties. Nor will we ever forget all of the class get-togethers hosted by Maj Fielder and I

MaryLou.

Together, the squadron has shared in the good times, but more important-

ly, we supported each other through rough times. When Harold E. Powell, Class of 1990, passed away on December 4, 1987, we lost not only a valuable part of the squadron, but a great friend. We will never forget him. the

Our fearless leader,

Major Fiedler

is not just an ordinary AOC. His partici-

pation and involvement with all of our various more

squadron activities makes him than an AOC.

We will remember all of these good and sad times as what brought us to-

gether as a squadron. It is the friendships and traditions which give us our unique identity as Roadrunners —

KING RATZ he 33rd Cadet Squadron, nicknamed the “Cellar Rats" due to its location in Sijan Hall, was formed when

the Cadet Wing expanded to 40 squa-

drons in 1969. The patch adopted the Air Force colors. The figures displayed in the patch represent two falcons div-

ing in formation to show the team work of the men of the Cadet Wing and the men of the Air Force. These highly stylized falcons having contrials trailing are significant of the Modern Air Force, its

equipment, and its men, both today and in

the future. One such outstanding of 33rd squadron is Lucky

graduate

Dunn who graduated first in the class of 1976. Also, Monty Montgomery who is remembered in the hearts of all Cellar Rats as a courageous leader.

Hawgs. Maybe

were going to be first in group, best in athletics and tops in academics. "Aim

high Squadron 34 and be careful out there," said (Capt) Smokin' Joe Mazzola our AOC. We were 39th in academics, 5th (in group) in athletics and placed a strong, consistent 8th (in group) in squadron of the month. The important thing, however, is that we had a great time doing it.

Suddenly we found ourselves placing in the top three in group several times. The best part of it all was that we

still had a good time

—

one

of the best

times ever. Some of the good times included the roommate game, the schmoo con-

test, squadron parties and countless other MWR activities. The highlight of the semester had to be our sponsor trip to

Travis AFB (San Francisco).

All in all, it was a good year. The best part about the year is that it is over, meaning that everyone has either grad-

expansion of 1970. Since that time, the

squadron has produced many outstanding graduates, including the famous split receiver, Ernie Jennings, who graduated in 1971. The Thirty-fifth is named for the "Wild Weasels" of the famed Southeast Asian combat mission. These men, who flew F-10s to seek out and de-

stroy enemy surface to air missile sites, serve as examples of courage, cunning, and strength. The squadron patch, con-

taining the colors of all four classes, depicts a weasel, high in the clouds, pre-

pared to strike its next target. The weasel, an intelligent, crafty, and courageous animal, is capable of amazing tenacity, cunning, and speed. The members of Thirty-fifth Squadron are proud to emulate their namesakes.

motto, "proud and Pink Panthers", shows

why the Panther was selected as the symbol on our patch. The Pink Panther depicts the cunning and sophistication every cadet strives for through his cadet career. The flight jacket, helmet and gold bars are symbollic of the cadet's two most immediate goals a commission as a Second Lieutenant and a flying -

career. The number "36" identifies the 36th squadron of the cadet wing. The fact that the Panther is leaning against the "36" signifies that the cadet is dependent on the other members of the squadron for most of the training he or she receives while at the Academy.

Thirty thirdclassmen entered 37th squadron in 1986 and twenty-five Skyraiders are graduating this year. A lot of great friendships have grown over the past three years along with many unforgettable events. The best of luck to those graduating this year wherever they end up and to those Skyraiders we leave behind in the Classes of '90 and '91, you're almost there.

the ever famous Quad Gods,

where cadets can get together and as

catch rays. Quading, this process is so appro-

priately called because the sunning is done in the quads of the dorms, is an important part of cadet life. Looking good for spring break and summer leave is often performed in conjunction with

sleep and studying for finals (not necessarily in that order). A quick glance into any quad will produce a picture of cadets in a variety of activities, including sleeping, studying or athletics, if there are 30 minutes of free time available between classes. The quads provide a place for cadets to exercise and

while getting that base tan for the upcoming leave periods. next to sleep (or in conjunction with it), quading is a cadet's favorite way to

spend QUALITY time.

the four pillars of academy

AAS hosted the Colorado Springs Boys Club for a tour of the Academy and sent a delegation to CSU for the Area

helped to host the National Conference (NATCON). At ARCON and NATCON, we had a great time

There’s just no substitute for good friends. Friends are what the Big Brother/Big Sister “Falcon Club” is all about cadets and local kids who get together once a month for a lot of fun and a way to show someone else that you care about them. It’s a club that gives cadets a chance to share themselves with a boy or girl between the ages of 7 and 14. These children are from single parent families and are matched with two cadets, who as friends and role models contribute to the development of the child’s self-esteem and social skills. Monthly activities, such as bowling, ice skating and club sleepovers, bring the matches together and give an afternoon of fun to some really special peopie both big and little. -

tain Joseph Mazzola, and Coach Bruce Svihus. There were a number of firsts this year. In September 1988, we com-

peted in our first National Collegiate Track Cycling Championships at the 711 Velodrome in Colorado Springs. We had limited on-season

slots in the fall. We also

doubled our spring onseason

slots to 14. For

the first time, we had a full

team

which, along with

women’s

the men’s team, showed

promise for strong placing in the Rocky Mountain Collegiate Cycling Conference (RMCC).

USAFA

Cycling Team

This year we had a team physician, team

mechanic, team logistics and even a publie relations job. With the growth of our team in the past two years, it has nearly

tripled in size, and the growth of collegiate cycling nationwide, we look forward to intercollegiate status in the future.

Our goals are many for the coming year. We want to

place second in the RMCC with CU and CC being our main competition. We would like to improve on our 20th place from last year’s National Road Championships. The National Championships are being held at USAFA in 1989 and the team is looking for a top ten placing on our home turf. Part of our training preparation this year

includes three days of racing at the US Naval

Academy during spring break. We’re hoping for our best year ever! Top: ClC Steve Orie and OIC Capt. Joseph Mazzola discuss the upcoming race with the team.

The 1988-89 season was another ex-

citing and successful year for the Drum and Bugle Corps. Nicknamed “The Flight of Sound,” the corps was under the direct supervision of the Commandant of Cadets, Brig General Sam W. Westbrook III. The D&B represents the Academy and the U.S. Air Force at many events across the United States including all Falcon Football games. Directed by Corps Superintendent SMSgt Rod Stewart, Choregrapher MSgt Ken Tyler, and Percussion Instructor TSgt Russ Daniels, the corps kicked off its new season with its annual camp at Farish in August. Many long hours of practice were spent perfecting a new show for the Inter-Service Academy Competition. The show included Chuck Mangione’s “Children of Sanchez,” the jazz number “T. 0.”, an exciting drum solo, and a medley of patriotic songs called “American Pageant.” The hard work paid off at the 13th annual competition against Navy on October 8th at Falcon Stadium. The D&B tasted victory as it increased its record to 11-2 with a score of 87. 2 over Navy’s 86. 1. In addition to the overall win, the corps was honored with the High General Effeet, High Brass, and High Percussion awards. The remainder of the fall season saw continued support at all of the Falcon Football games and a halftime performance at a Denver Bronco’s

CLUBS 387

There are 12 cadets who make up the Flying Team, which is a branch off the 557th Flying Training Squadron. The members all hold a private pilot’s license or better. The selection of the team occurs in the late fall of each year. The members of the team compete in flying competitions against other universities across the country as part of the National Intercollegiate Flying Association. Using a modified Cessna 150, N557TH, and Cessna T-4lA’s, the team competes in such events as spot landings, low-level visual navigation and instrument flying. Ground events inelude: aircraft identifi cation, simulator flying, aircraft preflight and flight planning. Over the last year the team spent spring break flying in Monroe, LA., took first place in regional competition, placed in the top 10 at NIFA’s national

Academy. These skills include horizontal caving, rock climbing, and advanced vertical single-rope techniques (rappelling, abseiling, and ascending). As members of the premier national caving organization, we participated in local trips to “wild” caves, cave exploration and surveying, scientific caving (biology, geology, hydrology, paleontology), and cave photography. Members of the Cadet Caving Club have participated in cave discovery/exploration trips in the Guadalupe Mountains and Lecheguilla regions of

Picking a major is a tough decision for all cadets. Some pick a major like Aero and spend three years pulling and complaining about “all-nighters”. Some cadets drop their first major because they don’t like it, or because it was too tough for them. Some cadets major in Engineering because they think they are required to do so since they are at the Academy. Then there are those who major in something that interests them. You can find us in any major whether it be Astro, Econ, or Geography. There’s only one difference between Geography and other majors we all major in Geography because we like what it has to offer. Geography takes you to far-away lands, it teaches you about interesting people, why they live like they do, and what to expect if you should find yourself ...

ON THE FIELDS— Physical fitness has always been one of "pillars” of the Academy. Intramurals serve two purposes: One is to promote physithe

cal fitness while the other is to allow the Cadet

Wing to have fun and release the pressures of cadet life.

Intramurals

provide

chance

for

the

fourthclassmen to become part of the squadron. The wide

variety of sports exposes cadets

to many new and different sports. Intramurals are broken into

fall, winter and spring divisions having totally different sports. Sports range from flag football to team handball and everyone who is not an intercollegiate must participate. Some cadets complain about intramurals saying that it is a haze; they are wrong. Cadets get out of intramurals exactly what they put into it. It is the enthusiasm of the Cadet Wing which makes intramurals enjoywith

Along with wallyball, basketball is the top choice for Winter Intramurals since swimming, boxing and wrestling do not appeal to many cadets. Most squadrons have basketball tryouts with former high school stars walking away with most of the spots. 1 degrees and 2 degrees once

For that fourthclassman who cannot join the

whoever strikes first usually wins the bout. Behind each bout are long hours of constant training on off-intramural days because intramural boxing is the one sport which truly keeps cadets in shape.

Racquetball is another one of the enjoyable intramural sports. Like tennis, its players know how to play and are

good at it. The courts are overcrowded and most of the time allotted for competition is spent sitting in the halls waiting for an open court. Still, the time is well spent because racquetball is a lot of fun.

Swimming is often the only alternative to boxing or wrestling for many fourthclassmen. The agony of punches to the face is replaced by the burning arms of an 80 yard butterfly or 200 yard freestyle. Beginning swimmers flounder as they learn that only fish can breath under water, but their strokes improve and everyone has a little fun swimming at USAFA.

parision, basketball for women is on the group level. However, this does not mean that the excitement is less by any comparison. In all honesty, the playing and excitement of this sport is on a plane by itself. Closing from five squa-

drons, this sport enables for a fast paced, well executed, and extremely entertaining game plan. Unlike squadron teams where everyone knows each other already, these ladies must learn to work more quickly together than usual. The team that pulls together first usually wins.

The sounds and smells of football might fill the air for some

folks, but these gentlemen have a different taste as they yearn for the golden days of original football before the invention of pads and helmets. Yes, these gentlemen play

rugby; a sport which requires an equilibrium of speed, agility, strength, and above all, a little craziness. The rules are not that complex for it seems that just about anything is fair. The only obvious rule is that it is illegal to throw the ball forward. No ordinary individual can play this sport. One must be half crazy as well as a superb athlete just to step onto the field.

Strike three, you're out! In softball, striking out at the plate is rare. More times than not, the ball is hit into the infield or outfield for the easy out. But what may seem like an easy

out is not

always the case. This softball is really a bis

"mush” ball and when it is hit, strange things always hap-

pen, though the ball may be slightly different, all the heroics of regular softball can still be seen.

Many Americans know that the most popular sport in the world is soccer. The second most popular sport is Team Handball, a European sport that is catching on like wild fire. Team Handball is a fast-paced game requiring an athlete of unmatched

speed, strength, quickness, and ball-handling skills. Just imagine if you will, a mixture of the finese of soccer played with the hands, waterpolo without water, contact basketball, and ice hockey without sticks or skates. Team Handball is a quick-striking, fast-thinking, full contact and high scoring game.

Rules for the game follow closely to those of flickerball and Hawaiian football. The offense is similar to that of a soccer and

basketball team combined while the defense

plays like a football defensive secondary. No specialized skill is needed to play, you just have to be able to catch and throw a frisbee while standing still on the run. Swish, swish, touchdown! It’s that simple and lots of fun. Just make sure your endurance is up before entering the field.

In this sport, height isn’t really a necessity. You need an all around athlete in order to play volleyball. This individual needs to be able to serve, set, hit, place, dig, dink, and kill a ball.

May, 1989.

June Week '89 was everything it had been billed to be. In my four years here, I have never been more exhausted and yet so happy. It was a time for looking back at what had been and a time to dream of the

things to come, but most

of all it was a chance to thank those that had

made the last four years bearable. June Week started with the arrival of my parents, (12 hours late and without luggage) on

Friday, May 26th. It was nice to spend a little time with them before the hordes started arriv-

ing on Monday. It was thrilling to finally meet the parents and friends of people I had lived with for the past three years. It was also painful to realize that this was the last time all of us would be together. That was the most painful part of June Week, the many "lasts" that take

place. The last parade, the last ONP, the last ball and the last handshake or hug from the people who have known you. (continued)

The hardest last for me, however, came on Monday when the Chorale gave its june Week Farewell Concert. It was my third, last and most difficult concert, one that out of hundreds of concerts I had participated in over the

years, I will remember always.

June Week marched on, much like the wing as they gave my class our bye, Y'ali" pass and review on Tuesday and all too quickly Wednesday morning arrived. You would think that four years at this place would prepare you for your commissioning ceremony, but none of us could have been more nervous. This fact was rather evident by the stammering of our voices as we recited an oath we all have memorized. I still do not know which ceremony was more meaningful, the commissioning or the two and one half hour, watch your classmates get the heck out of here ceremony that afternoon. One thing is for certain, I will never forget the sight of the Thunder Birds or the thundering "Sound of Freedom" they left in their wake.

Eyes on the olive branch, but arrows at the ready. The American Eagle’s stance on the Great Seal of the United States symbolizes what our country’s great leaders have taught for two centuries: Seek peace from a position of strength. President George Washington captured its meaning in his first message to Congress in

1789. “To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving

peace!’ Today, the United States Air Force F-15 Eagle is a manifestation of the Great Seal’s symbology. Strong enough to win, awesome enough to deter. By its very presence it is an expression of national will.

FROM SEA TO SHININO SEA, THE WILL TO SUCCEED IS PARTOF THC AMERICAN SPIRIT. The instant you become an American, whether by birth or by choice, you are

guaranteed a particular freedom

that is nowhere mentioned in the Constitution, but in feet flows from it. You are guaranteed the freedom to succeed. You are free to dream your own dream of success, to study, to work, to create and discover and build, for yourself and your children, the success you want. Our deep belief in that idea is one reason that our company—Citicorp and Citibank—has grown to become by fer the nation's largest financial services organization. For over 175 years, our freedom to innovate, to create new financial ideas and services, has led to an unbroken line of initiatives allowing us to help countless millions of individuals. Today, more Americans are pursuing college education and graduate degrees with help from us than from any other private lender.

More are getting what they want with the help of MasterCard*and Visa cards from Citibank than from any other company. And more Americans who once dreamed of “some day” owning their own homes now own them, or are buying them, with help from Citicorp and Citibank. Meanwhile, here at home and in 90 other countries around the world, we offer the frill range of financial services, from automated machines for personal banking to corporate funding in the billions. Over 90,000 people of Citicorp and Citibank serve over 25,000,000 customers, thousands of companies and many governments, in every major world marketplace. We can help you, or your company, achieve success, here and abroad. Whether you get to know us as Citicorp or Citibank, we'd like you to get to know us better.

■■

Top: The honor code is a part of each cadet’s life everyday. Not only is the honor code instilled within each individual as a cadet, but it is

carried into active duty as a way of life.

Above: Travelling to breakfast each morning becomes very routine. As the group CQ returns to the CQ shack with the juice, the rest of the Cadet Wing begins their day.

564 CLOSING

Far Left: Each SAMI provides an opportunity to clean your room and dean it well, in

hopes to be the best and get out of the next one. C1C Ser-

gio Charon stands proud waiting for the next group of inspectors. Left: Preparing for class is a nightly routine, where attendance the following morning could be uncomfortable if unprepared. Wearing a helmet provides a little incentive to keep going during those long nights before GR's.

rom the first

day, the term

mandatory became a bad word. A lot happens on the hill before we can get to the light at the end of the tunnel-the dream. Not all of it is bad, but it seems like the unpleasant activities stick into our minds the most. From the first day we walked up that “Bring Me Men” ramp, the term “mandatory” became a bad word. Common questions included, “Why do we HAVE to go to class everyday?”, “Why do we HAVE to go to breakfast?” and, “Do we HAVE to stand another SAMI?” One mandatory activity after another really seemed to get old. But we kept doing it anyway. We went to breakfast everyday, we attended class even after an all-nighter and we stood those SAMI’s on beautiful Saturdays. We stuck through it all.

ON THE HILL

It happened

Above: The march-on before each home football game is another part of the mandatory fun experienced each year. Supporting the falcons as the 12th man helps turn thatmanda-

tory fun attitude into a team effort for

victory. Right: Car rallies were a favorite way to show spirit and have a little fun at the same time. Squadrons got together and came up with their own way to participate and show support for the academy teams.

Training in the stairwell is a

good way to spend time with the fourthclassmen without disturbing the squadron. Training sessions can get loud when the 4 degrees perform to their abilities. Below Left: Preparing for the noon meal requires some organization and teamwork among the 4 degrees. C4C James Ramsey does his part by situating the glasses and milk, ready to pour when the wing takes seats.

Bottom Left:

Capt Lash and C1C Christopher Simon work together on an Engineering 410 project. Between class time and the unlimited available extra instruction, cadets can excel in any class they put the time into.

he global dream we may die for.. .because we WANT to. Why did we put up with all of it? Because

of that dream. Of course, the dream is in part

simple

graduate and

become Second

Lieutenants. But the dream really goes further

than that. In a way, it’s personal to each of us. Most of us want to go to pilot training and fly for the Air Force. Others were looking forward to going to grad school, going direct entry and even

going to medical school.

But in the end, that dream is the same for each of us to defend our country. The -

academy prepared us to accept all those personal dreams and the global dream which we all live for, and may die fighting for. Die not because we HAVE to, but because we WANT

to, because it happened on the hill.

helpful, providing team captain

section. The Falcon Flyer and Public Affairs also provided some photos and stories for the Cadet Life section. Thanks

to them for allowing us to "steal’’ some copy. Joyce Han-

Lastly, I would like to extend a tremendous thanks to adviser Kieran Downey, our publications assistant Mayita Buisman, and our clerk typist Cathy Petersen. Kieran came into this job last summer not really knowing what she was getting herself into and has turned out to be a true asset to this publication. Kieran has gotten this office and the Polaris back on their feet again. Mayita, along with helping whenever needed, definitely kept the office alive and well. Cathy, new to Cadet Wing Media, has been a big help entering copy, addresses and other miscellaneous paraphanelia into the computer. Kieran and her staff deserve a big THANK YOU for their priceless assistance and our

support.
