THE BATTALION n
Corps Advisor
John M. Bozardt of Houston
has been appointed a civilan
corps advisor in the comman
dant’s office at Texas A&M Uni
versity.
Vet Student Had “Shade-Tree” Practice
P
The 1961 A&M graduate will
work with Malon Southerland of
Houston in cadet corps advisory
affairs, announced Col. Jim H.
McCoy, commandant.
An Army reserve captain, Bo
zardt served three years and
commanded the 196th Ordnance
Detachment in Worms, Germany.
A Texas A&M veterinary medi
cine major who vaccinated live
stock amid ancient lean ruins and
worked among head shrinkers
says Peace Corps volunteers get
an education that can’t be bought.
Joseph W. Burkett III of Kerr-
ville, admitted to A&M’s veteri
nary medicine school in spring,
spent 22 months in Ecuador as
a corps volunteer.
“It was a shade tree practice
to vet medicine,” he smiled.
The 24-year-old student fought
foot and mouth disease in south
ern Ecuador during most of his
tour. He worked with Indian na
tives and landowners through the
Ministry of Agriculture at Cuen-
tipped sierras of Andes-split Ecu
ador. Mr. and Mrs. John Wyss
of Denton, also in vet medicine at
A&M, were in Ecuador at the
same time.
Burkett and other volunteers
ranged the South American coun
try from steaming coastal and
interior jungles to the snow-
“If you think we’ve got humid
ity problems here, take off your
boots in an Ecuador jungle,” the
former circuit rodeo cowboy com
mented. “Next morning, moss is
growing in them.”
Burkett said Peace Corps vol
unteers gain perception in their
work.
“I learned to become more
aware of what is going on around
me,” he added. “The work also
makes volunteers realize how
lucky we are to live in the U. S.”
“Ecuador is potentially weal
thy, mainly in minerals,” the stu
dent observed. “Actually, it’s very
poor.”
The lawyer’s son, whose parents
reside at 504 West Main, Kerr-
ville, said U. S. foreign aid prob
lems are brought into focus.
“Knowledge is hard to beat,”
the 1962 Kerrville T i v y High
graduate remarked. “Money and
supplies are not good enough by
themselves. The natives must be
taught how to use them.”
Burkett said he had a “million
jobs in two years” after attend
ing Schreiner Institute and Trin
ity. “I shod hor-ses and followed
the Rodeo Cowboys Association
circuit.”
Then he joined the Peace Corps
and acquired 30 hours vet medi
cine schooling at Montana State,
through corps training.
Arriving in Ecuador in Septem
ber, 1964, he spent four months
in a livestock betterment pro
gram in the northern corner of
the country.
