DePauw Unit Noted for Historic Drill Records and Honors

The DePauw military unit, established in 1870, has a history of top drill performance. In 1882 it ranked high in infantry and artillery drills in Indianapolis, earning a medal as the best artillery squad. In 1892 and 1895 it set time records for dismounting and remounting a gun, with a 25 to 35 second span and a world record of 12 and 32 seconds. The unit received Springfield rifles and field guns. A 1885 Zouave contingent drew wide attention, Spanish war hiatus paused its activities, and it resumed in 1917 earning further drill honors. The unit has twice won superior performance awards for drill against schools in subsequent years.
