US Army cadet rifle team and officer/non-commissioned officer advisor. Photograph is pre-WWII with uniforms reflecting tall boots and Sam Browne belts. Decorations and medals on US Army personnel in back row show service in WWI and top level marksman badges. There is no indication location of the photo. Based on uniforms, photo can be dated from approximately 1925-1940.
Cadet band drum majors and majorettes in full dress uniforms. The two ROTC drum majors on each end of group are wearing the standard mid-1930s dress coat with service breeches (jodhpurs pants). Sam Brown belts with high leather boots. The four "junior" drum majors and majorettes are wearing non-standard uniforms, probably band issued with garrison caps.
Governor Charles H. Martin addressing cadet formation, 1935-36. Photograph is probably from stock used for an OSC publication. Identified in pencil narration on reverse, reading like a press release: "Governor Charles H. Martin always dressed the part when he reviewed the cadet regiment and spoke to the men to receive commissions. Here in 1936 he advised the officers not to join the 'grouches and radicals' when they finished college. Probably all these men are now in active service." The last comment about active service would probably speak to WWII, placing these comments of that era. There is also a fountain pen caption at the top reverse: "Military Review 1935-36."
