Throwback Thursday: EWU ROTC in Formation Back in 1967

From the archives of Eastern Washington University comes the below image of the The Fighting Eagle Battalion in formation at a parade field back in 1967.  Notice how back then the female Cadets wore white dresses and were called a “Sponsor Corps”.  We have come a long way as an Army.   Does any of our alumni recognize where this parade field was located at in the Cheney area?

  1. Albert, thanks for pointing out the location of the parade field. Do you know if the barn in the background is the same “Red Barn” that the EWU police department is currently located at?
