During their third and four years, if they qualify scholastically and physically, they will be classed as V-5 aviation cadets, and take a course of summer training at the Pensacola Naval Air Station, to be followed by an optional year’s fleet service with the navy. This coarse, in effect, offers a gratis training in aviation in the finest school in the world, and during the advance portion the student will be paid, clothed and quartered at the government’s expense.
