University of Wisconsin ROTC Review

Image

The Brigade of University of Wisconsin ROTC cadets massed in battalion fronts in Camp Randall stadium as they await the order to "pass in review" at a federal inspection. The 3,3000 cadets in the picture represent one of the largest university ROTC units in the country. Army ROTC troops are in the left front, the midshipmen of the Naval ROTC can be identified by their white caps, and the Air ROTC cadets are at the far end of the brigade line. Music for the review was provided by the university band, right front.
