He has already begun, to learn that his rifle is his best friend; and must be taken care of and handled’ properly. Shortly. before 5 o’clock the young soldier is’ dismissed from the (drill ground and goes to his quarters to clean up for the formal parade’ of the day, that of retreat. i This ceremony inspires reverence for the flag and all it stands for.
