Delaware Men Meet
In Virginia
Mr. Charles W. Bush, who is a graduate of Delaware College in the Class of 1903, writes interestingly of a visit that he has just made to his college mate, Lieut. Col. J. H. Reybold, who is in command of the Coast Artillery School at Fortress Monroe, Va.
The careers of these two college-mates have been quite divergent. Bush a Rhodes Scholar, studying three years at Oxford University, England, and now Industrial Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. for Virginia, and Reybold entering the army and creating thru sheer force of personality a great educational work in that historic fortress.
The Coast Artillery School is a small university where enlisted men can get a technical training that equals the training offered by many schools and colleges. The curriculum is not entirely technical, but some emphasis is placed on subjects not entirely utilitarian—rather remarkable under the circumstances. It is a unique thing. There is a smaller one at the Presidio in San Francisco. Another Delaware College Alumnus, C. J. Schaffer, class of '11, is teaching in the Coast Artillery School.
