The Black and Gold 1977
As on JROTC (Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps) member stated, "this past year's program has been an outstanding one."
In January, military talents were displayed at the Principals and Sponsors Parade at McKinley's William Wise Field.
On March 3, the most important event was the Annual Formal Inspection at McKinley. Cadets strived, again, to obtain the Honor Unit with Distinction, which they had received the year before.
Fort DeRussy's Kuroda Field was the site for the annual Field Day Competitions for all high school units on Oahu in April.
In May, the group marched in the Aloha Week Parade. The final activity was the Formal Awards Ceremony, honoring outstanding cadets, in McKinley's Multi-Purpose Auditorium. This year's advisers were Sgt. Daniel Abella and Sgt. Kenji Ito.
The Sabre and Chain, a club made up of officers, displayed leadership, courtesy and discipline. Its duties were to supervise all JROTC unit activities.
In November, at University of Hawaii's Cooke Field, the Sabre and Chain was victorious over the NCO club in football.
As the annual school carnival arrived, Sabre and Chain members ran the "Amboosh" game booth. On March 12, they sponsored the Commanders Ball at the Hale Koa Hotel.
And Awards Ceremony planned by Sgt. Ito concluded the year.
