From a *confidential* source that knows us, our Drill Team was trashed within minutes of the Norwich email (07 Jan 2005) to the alumni and whoever else gets it about what jealousy our Shock Platoon has created. The article I received in the NU email said:
SHOCK PLATOON TO COMPETE IN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS IN NEW ORLEANS
The Norwich University Drill Team, Shock Platoon, will be in New Orleans on February 3rd and 4th to participate in the Mardi Gras Drill Competition, hosted every year by Tulane University's Naval ROTC program. The competition is the equivalent of the national championship for drill teams.
The Shock Platoon is coming off of a successful competition at Cornell University in November, where they won first place in all eight events and took first place overall.
In New Orleans, the Shock Platoon will go head-to-head against more than 95 teams from 50 schools. Last year at the National Championships the Norwich Drill Team finished first in a number of events and placed second overall.
Norwich alumni in the New Orleans area are invited to come out and support their alma mater during this prestigious competition.
For a schedule of the New Orleans drill events call 504-865-5104 extension 8, or email drillcoordinator@nrotc.tulane.edu.
