OX BOYS AT FRENCH ARTILLERY SCHOOL IN PARIS

Lieutenant Cadwallader reports from a French artillery school near Paris where San Antonio cadets study under strict regime. He notes dress parades, daily schedules, and colonial style quarters in a Napoleonic palace. The six local students share an orderly, learn French from him, and endure long lectures, meals, and limited holidays as they train for two months.
