Gradually breaking up after a two-month stay in the ASTU, the 56-man ROTC group returned to Harvard after basic training loses 17 more men today as a shipment goes to OCS at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma. These Field Artillery students follow by one week the 24 men who were sent to the Armored Fort school at Ft. Knox, Kentucky.
