Fish Drill Team acquires practice rifles
Fish Drill Team preparations for
> 1975-76 competition season
vebeen given a boost.
The all-freshman team has ac-
ired 100 practice rifles. Supplied
ough the Naval ROTC program,
acquisition enables each of the
member team to get early ex
perience handling the rifle.
Col. Jack Ivins, NROTC head,
said the NROTC unit welcomed the
chance to assist a special unit of the
Corps of Cadets. The detachment is
the newest of the ROTC programs
here. It has been in operation three
years.
Earlier FDT supply was largely
by the Army, which also assisted the
Ross Volunteers and Texas Aggie
Band.
The 100 rifles are Mark V dummy
drill weapons. They are “de
militarized” versions of the 0-3
Springfield rifle. The chamber of
each has been split, the bolt welded
shut and muzzle plugged. Sharp
protusions have been removed, to
reduce injuries.
“Otherwise, the Mark V s are the
same weight and have the same ba
lance and outward appearance of
the 0-3,” commented Marine Corps
Maj. Steve Berkheiser. He, Maj.
Dick Descheneaux of the Air Force
ROTC detachment and Capt. John
Miller, Army, are Fish Drill Team
sponsors.
The new drill pieces have high
impact fiberglass-type stocks that
are more resilient and durable to

drill team handling.
Maj. Berkheiser said the FDT
will continue to use Springfields as
competition arms. They are
chromed and have highly-polished
walnut stocks. The latter are more
susceptible to breakage.
“The great thing about these new
pieces is that each of the freshmen
will now have practice rifles,” Maj.
Berkheiser said. “The competition
weapons can’t he used for teaching
throws.”
With the added practice capabil
ity, it is probable that two teams will
be entered in the Houston competi
tion in December.
Senior advisor Joe Wallace and
upperclass advisors have been dril
ling the fish since tryouts were
completed early this fall.
“The team has as good a hunch of
raw talent as it’s had in quite a
while,” Berkheiser said. “Forty to
50 were members of high school
drill units. Even though some un
learning’ and reteaching’ to our
methods is necessary, the group has
moved faster through basic prepara
tions.”
The Fish Drill Team’s main com
petition season comes next spring.
