Cadet Drills Build Wyoming Weaklings Into Sturdy Cadets
The Wyoming high school cadet program is credited with strengthening boys in Cheyenne and seven cities. John Warrington Jr and Enteron Schneider are highlighted as examples of health gains from military training. Warrington, once underweight and told he could not enlist, grew to win second honors in scholarship and reached 150 pounds after drills. Schneider, a 110-pound senior, never held cadet office due to health but walked 20 miles to Pole Mountain with full gear. The piece frames the program as democratic citizen training linked to Switzerland and Austria.
