Leadership graduates at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland


As you can see, Leadership requires perfect balance. This is dad balancing a chair on his chin. He always claimed he could balance anything but a checkbook.

Starting June 19th 1952 - Dad began his Basic Training at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. Eight weeks of Basics, ten weeks of Ordnance Training, eight weeks of Leadership and eight weeks of Cadre.
