On Saturday, February 19, 7 JROTC Cadets from the Raider Battalion, and a few others conducted a small memorial ceremony and cleaned up around the 551st Parachute Infantry Battalion's monument near Lake Kinney Cameron. It was 75 years ago that eight members of the unit perished in the lake during a training jump. The informal ceremony was narrated by Colonel John Ring and took place around the actual memorial marker. At the conclusion of the ceremony, each person in attendance placed a penny on top of the stone in keeping with tradition to let others know they visited. Afterward, cadets took the opportunity to clean up around the area.
