A History Of C-3: A Story from the Dusty Filing Cabinet

To the Readers,

Thank you for all of your

responses and I am glad that

you all enjoyed the newsletter.

I believe that it is important for

our unit to understand its history

and stay connected with those

who came before us.

I understand that many of you

are curious as to why C-3‟s

nickname has been changed

from the Fighting Cocks to the

Gamecocks. This occurred

when the Class of 2011 entered

C-3 during our yearling year in

2008. There was a debate

about the name “Fighting

Cocks” and its perceived

vulgarity. However, because of

its long history and popular

support, West Point was not

able to completely change C-

3‟s name and it was decided

that C-3 would become the

Gamecocks. I know that many

of you are upset with the

change, but I am still a proud

member of C-3 nonetheless.

We are also trying to find out

more about our history. If

anyone knows the origins of

the Gamecock Saber (see

below & right), please let me

know. From what I can gather,

it was acquired in the early

1990‟s. We would like to know

who acquired it and when. If

you know more about the

establishment of C-3 in 1966, as

well as any other significant

moments in C-3‟s history,

please send us your stories,

pictures, and memories.

I would again like to thank you

all for your support and I would

like to encourage you to send

me any stories of your time in

C-3 or anything related. I have

already received a few and I

am already working to

incorporate them into the next

issue. Pictures are also highly

encouraged.

Respectfully,

The Start Of C-3: A verbatim story written by an unknown cadet from the late 1980‟s

“C-3‟s history can be directly

traced to 1947 when an

enlargement of the Corps of

Cadets called for the creation

of several new companies,

including L-1, C-3‟s

predecessor. It was a practice

at that time to form the Corps

by height in order to give a

more orderly appearance at

parades. Being at the end of

the regiment, L-1 was

comprised of relatively short

people, and for this reason

became known in some circles

as the „Runts.‟ This definitely

didn‟t stop them from

performing on the fields of

friendly strife. Those first years

saw victories in baseball in ‟47

and ‟48, basketball in ‟50,

lacrosse in ‟51, and even

football in ‟52. They typified

what our superintendent calls

„that underweight

overachiever.‟ Though the

Corps no longer arranges the

companies by size, that

indomitable will still survives in

the Fighting Cocks of C-3.

There are many graduates

from L-1 and C-3 that have led

fruitful and distinguished

careers. As an example, let‟s

look at the class of ‟47. Out of

13 graduates, one became a

Major General, four became

full Colonels, one a design

engineer for Lockheed Aircraft,

and one a real estate and

contract manager for IBM in

America and the Far East.

These are all from just one

class.

As of 1 July 1965, L-1 officially

became Company C-3, with

CPT Irving A. Beauchamp, Jr. as

its first TAC. In a tradition that

old L-1 had perpetuated, C-3

continued to lead the new

regiment in the area of

academics. Just last year, C-3

was again the first in the Third

Regiment in academics.

The first few classes out of C-3

sent many of their members to

Vietnam to give of themselves

that which they thought their

country needed. In the

tradition that the academy

and C-3 has instilled in them,

they performed admirably.

That first class, ‟66, sent over

half of their numbers to

Vietnam. Two earned Silver

Stars for their valor, nine of

them [earned] Bronze Stars,

and two [gave] their life for our

country. It is an admirable

record that speaks highly of the

Corps and the company that

molded them.

Another indication of

excellence in a company is the

annual presentation of the

Superintendent‟s Award. It is

given to the company that

performs well in all areas of

development, to include

intramurals, academics, and

company grading. C-3 has

won this award [multiple times

in its history]. Another award

that reflects on the excellence

of a company is the

Commandants Award. It is

awarded to the best company

in Cadet Basic Training. In it[s]

first year of existence last year,

C Company, comprised of

many of the first classmen of C-

3, won the award.

All of these facts and more can

show what a healthy

company, rich in tradition and

history can do for the United

States Army and our nation as

a whole. It‟s a tradition we all

can be proud of long after we

have left these grey walls for a

career in green, or whatever

outfit we choose to wear. To

quote a former graduate out

of C-3, „it was a fraternity

where there are no fraternities,

a home when home is far

away…‟ and a place where

friendships formed will last a

lifetime. C-3, THE PLACE TO BE.”

Quick update on what's been

going on with me and a few

other guys from the '09 Cocks.

After Infantry Officer Basic

Course at Fort Benning, Dan

Barnett, Tommy Sandonato,

Chuck Wood, Mike Platek,

Bobby Lee, and myself all went

through Ranger school and

passed (left). IT SUCKED. But,

anyone that branched Infantry

and wants some advice, any

of us would be more than

happy to share.

Dan, Bobby, and I are all at

Fort Lewis, WA and are serving

as Stryker Platoon Leaders right

now. I am in Attack Co. 1-38

INF, 4-2 SBCT. Long days and

long nights, but it is absolutely

worth it. Being an infantry

platoon leader is incredible. I

got blessed with an

unbelievably great Platoon

Sergeant so it has made my life

a million times better. If you

guys remember MSG Klinger,

my PSG is a lot like him.

I am still happily married to

Brooke and we have a White

German Shepherd named

Merv and a black Standard

Poodle named Poe. They are

crazy and keep us busy all the

time but they're a lot of fun.

I have many fond memories

of being a Fighting Cock and

for historical purposes, we

used to greet each other

with 'Go Cocks'. 'Fight to the

Death' was after my time.

We did live on the 4th floor of

Ike, until my firstie year, when

they experimented with the

First Class living apart from

the rest of the company. We

lived 2 floors down first

semester and then over in

Mac my second semester. I

won't bore you with too

many stories, but will give you

a few highlights. C-3 was an

'academic' company in my

time, not great at sports, and

a joke at Sandhurst. My Cow

year, I was the Sandhurst SGT,

after 2 years of embarrassing

efforts, and Dennis O'Keefe

'89 was the the Sandhurst

Officer. We put together a

great team, I'll try to find a

photo, and won the

competition the Spring of '89.

First Reg, historically strong,

was not happy that the

geeks in C-3 won! The next

year, we came in second

overall, and first in the

Regiment. Some of the team

members were Paul Kucik,

Christina Burnett, Chris Farrell,

Fred Burpo and Kurt Filosa.

Chris Lehner,

Chris Lingle,

Jerry McGinn,

Tad Gerlinger,

Kevin King,

and Frank De

Carlo at their

20 year

reunion, Class

of '90

Where COL Tad Gerlinger met his wife,

Eleanor, after a parade in the Fall of '89.

Rich Mulder completes Ranger School (right)

but often reminisces about his times in C-3 to

include the ‟09 Flickerball Team (above).

Grad Quote Compilation

“One day, I pretended to be the Officer of the Day and called the Central Guard Room and told them to announce that the parade that

day was canceled. You should have seen the guys hitting the doors before they could fix it. We ended up with about half of one

Regiment on the parade field.” - Patrick Hermanson „73

“WOW...33 years since I roamed the C-3 halls... Fighting Cocks back then... I see the Comm has emasculated you all a little bit :-) Oh well,

the Spirit still remains! Good to see C-3 doing well in intra-murder. We won a Brigade Championship in Lacrosse my cow year. Totally

dominated D-4 winning 13-3 or something like that. We were pretty beastly.” - Andy Tedesco „78

“Among other things, those C-3 cadets (2000-2003) started or restarted, the tradition of carrying rubber chickens around in the cargo

pockets of their BDUs (and later ACUs) ... for spirit, on Fridays prior to Army football games.” - LTC Christopher Farrel

“When I was a C- 3 cadet, I wrote for The Pointer. I wrote for 3 of those years because writing for The Pointer as a smack would have been

bogus. A couple of years ago I posted all The Pointer pages I wrote online. You can find them at http://cadetsinhell.blogspot.com.“ - Mike

Figliuolo

“Actually Class of „67 was one of the first four classes to „form up‟ C-3. As you probably know, prior to that there were only two regiments. In

fact, when we were plebes they were still talking about flanker and runt companies. I spent my first two years in A-1, a flanker company in

old parlance; altho‟ we had cadets of all heights. So A-1 and M-2 were flanker companies and M-1/A-2 were the runt companies in the

middle of the Brigade formations.” - Ed Dewey „67

Past Painting by Greg Mellinger

Old Grad Photo Update: What They‟ve been up to since then:

It was super to read about what is happening these days, the

great achievement of the Fighting Cocks with

Football/Soccer/Germany abroad, and of course the new

logo. Speaking of logos, when my classmates and I were

roaming the halls 26 years ago as Plebes, seems not even

possible it was that long ago, the logo/greetings were a little

more "rough and tumble." I could send the whole slew of

ways we greeted upperclassmen and how they responded,

which made for some pretty difficult to keep the "smack" off

our faces moments. Some of my favorite memories included

the 5th floor Eisenhower Dorm water slide championships, the

incredibly lucky years we had with strong football programs

and how crazy we were during Friday night dinner Martha

Washington Cake food fights (rare but they did happen), our

endless spirit missions including surgical rope water balloon

artillery out to the Area, and even our acrobatic water

balloon "attacks" on upperclassman on the floor below us via

our windows (that is quite an engineering/risky story actually),

and of course the still echoing chants of "Odin" prior to

midweek drills/parades which sometimes actually produced

results and additional time with our "Green Girls." No doubt,

the place would have been unbearable had it not been for

our never ending search for funny things and sense of humor.

Lastly, just want to make sure that the oil painting of our

beloved C-3 fighting cock painted by famous artiest George

Angelini is still in your possession (right). George is a world

renown artist whose works have graced the covers of many

magazines and studios. He was a family friend and painted

it for us 25 years ago and we were all quite proud of it, even

including the cigar hanging from the rooster's "lips."

Abuse of a Public Animal by Kasey Warner, 74

My C-3 roommate and I decided to act

like we were going out running; instead,

we climbed up on the water tank below

Delafield Pond to get a tan on the first

day of decent sun, in April 1971. We

were Plebes and figured we would not

be hassled if we could not be seen.

Because we had been up late getting

hazed the night before, we were both

pretty tired, and the sun really felt good.

We fell asleep. About three hours later,

we woke up to find we were both very

sunburned, requiring serious medical

attention.

All was OK until we were written up for,

believe it or not -- "destruction of

Government property". (If a specific

crime was not listed in the Corps Regs,

resort would often be made to the UCMJ,

and this IS a UCMJ offense.) Knowing I

wanted to be a lawyer someday, and

being encouraged by the company

"lawyer" (an upperclassman who really

didn't care about the outcome), we

researched the crime and came up with

the argument that we could not be

"property" since a Constitutional

amendment outlawed slavery. It worked

with the Company Tac (MAJ Shroeder,

who later became Chief of Engineers) for

about 2 minutes. We were then served

with amended charges: "Abuse of a

public animal". Realizing the "fix" was in,

we promptly began serving our "slug", but

getting only restriction because the

sunburn prevented us from placing an M-

14 on our shoulders and marching the

area.

On the 50th Anniversary of the WWII

Normandy Invasion, as a LTC, I jumped

into the original St. Mere Eglise drop zone

with General Hugh Shelton and elements

of the 82d and 101st. On the ground,

now-General Schroeder was present and

recognized me despite the passage of

about 25 years; I was introduced around

as a Fighting Cock and one of only two

soldiers ever officially found to be a

"public animal".

relationship with CIS and

Outlook.

If you‟re wondering who the

tall skinny unfamiliar white guy

with glasses walking around

the barracks these days is, his

name is Cadet, and there are

thousands of them.

More specifically, if you‟re

wondering who the guy fitting

that description in C-3 is, his

name is probably Brian Walter.

I am unfamiliar to most

because I went straight from

my old company to USAFA for

the fall semester.

For my entire life, I‟ve lived in a

small town outside of

Syracuse, NY named

Marcellus. In high school, I

played multiple sports,

including Lacrosse, and spent

my spring afternoons getting

pulverized by half of the

current Army and Syracuse

Lacrosse teams. Nevertheless,

I still bleed a healthy

combination of Orange,

Black, and Gold, and had a

score-gasm when I watched

C-3‟s (and Syracuse‟s) own

Devin Lynch single-handedly

smite his hometown in double

overtime in the playoffs last

year at the Carrier Dome.

As for the Air Force Academy,

I have been there and seen

all it has to offer. I had a

fantastic time climbing the

Rockies, white water rafting,

mountain biking, and flying an

airplane Solo.

Nevertheless, I have my own

opinions about the Air Force

and the Academy, and if you

wish to discuss these things

further, do not hesitate for one

second to ask me. One Air

Force Officer he encountered

while at USAFA summed it up

best when he said “It‟s just a

different mindset here…in the

Air Force, you‟re not gonna

lead s*** out of a paper bag.”

Currently, I hold the positions

of Athletics NCO and Honor

NCO in C-3, about which I am

very neutral. I hope to get

back to interacting with my

company mates more in the

future by holding a job that

entails more than just a serious

For plebes like myself, this

winter has been the first time

experiencing the dreaded

gray period here at West

Point. My morning routine

pretty much typifies my

sentiments for this less than

wonderful, winter wonderland.

I wake up to my alarm clock

and stumble in a sleepy stupor

to the window, trying to

search for some hope for an

enjoyable career at West

Point. I get into the

completely arbitrary and

complicated uniform

announced by some less than

enthusiastic cow over the

Central Guard Room intercom

just in time to hustle out to the

apron for formation. But even

worse, I had woken up just in

time to see the sky fill with

billowing gray clouds which

covered up any hope of

sunlight and blue skies.

I‟m just lucky that I have kept

busy enough between school,

Sandhurst, Combat Weapons

Team and friends, that I

haven‟t had much time to

think about the gray period

because I know that I would

legitimately go crazy here.

Every night is a hectic

balancing act between those

four activities; you‟ll probably

see me in some type of battle

rattle running between

Sandhurst and Combat

Weapons Team events before

coming back to do homework

until the wee hours of the

night. And if you see me with

a few dark rings under my

eyes don‟t worry, they aren‟t

from plebe boxing. They‟re

just a sign of trying to fulfill all

of my commitments. People

ask me why I seem to be

punishing myself by

completely overloading my

schedule and the only reason

I can think of is that it doesn‟t

seem so bad when you‟ve got

a good group of friends.

During first semester, five of my

classmates and I formed a

group dedicated to the Jersey

Shore, weekly pickup games

of football and basketball,

„gym-tanning-laundry,‟ and

sandwiches from Highland

Falls Market. We decided that

in order to solidify our

friendships, we desperately

needed a name for our small

group of weekend warriors,

and from that point forward

we referred to ourselves as the

Slick Six. They are without a

doubt my biggest group of

supporters and are probably

the reason I have maintained

my sanity thus far.

We have become famous for

things like fist pumping at spirit

dinners, distracting a

significant portion of our

classmates‟ busy days with

games of Call of Duty (CoD),

and hosting jam sessions with

upcoming country music star,

and fellow plebe Lukas Findley

‟14. But it‟s not just about

having a good time within our

group; it‟s about being a

source of camaraderie and

joy within the company. I‟m

sure everyone remembers the

highly popular Operation

Birthday Party for First

Sergeant, which was

spearheaded by our very own

Kevin Magdiel and resulted in

the first sergeant lying in the

shower, handcuffed and

covered in condiments. Also,

the football, which proudly

bears the communal title of

the “C-3 Plebe Ball,” which is

used for slug sporting events

out on the apron, was

purchased by our group. We

bought the ball to provide the

company, particularly the

present and future plebe

classes of C-3 with some

pretty intense and stress-

relieving recreation. Every

day we try to create

examples of how we can

bring a better West Point

experience to those around

us.

This group is changing my

West Point experience for the

better as we simply try to win

some small victories over West

Point‟s monotony, whether it‟s

by yelling Jersey Shore styled

minutes or having a road trip

with our best friends over a

long weekend. And despite

my cynicism and negative

speech, which has been

coined as “Reeves Rants,”

these friends and these

experiences are what make

me proud to be a C-3

Gamecock and glad that I

came to West Point… despite

the terrible winters.

Being late to class or having an unkempt room may result in

more than 100 total hours in their career are affectionately

216 hours followed by 160 hours (based on who responded

to the survey).
