This was the first day that pleasant, spring heat started to turn a little sweltering by afternoon, as The Cadets cleaned drill in the stadium. Cheeks and chests are a little rosier this evening. The food crew spent the morning and early afternoon flipping hundreds of sizzling hamburger patties. When they gradually realize what’s for […]
