I am pretty sure the "Texas Aggies" writing in the horseshoe was gone before my fish year in '97. I don't recall ever seeing it. I went to the NAAMB competition at Kyle Field in '94 (my first time ever there or to ever see the FTAB), and I don't recall seeing the writing then, either (but there was a girl I spent most of my time watching on that trip, so who knows?)

I tried to find the write-up for the Life Magazine pics from 1949, and found this non-Aggie picture:

The caption cracked me up!

NOVEMBER 1950: Pair of Texas University students kissing after a close football victory over Southern Methodist University, who had been the favored team.

I saw the 3rd ID patch before I recognized Audie Murphy on page 11. The legacy lives on - the 3rd ID has done a lot of heavy lifting in Iraq in the last 7 years. Great photos.

aggie1944,

There was a man in my hometown A&M club named Dutch Holland. I believe he was class of '44. Maybe you knew him. He has since passed, but this reminded me of some of the stories he would tell. Thank you for this thread. Thank you for your service. Gig 'Em.

I was a freshman in 1985. There was no "TEXAS AGGIES" on the horseshoe at that time.

Those images way back on page 10 made me think of a rumor I heard awhile back.

I was told that what is now the golf course was once the artillery range.

Anyone know?

They used to do artillery drills there, but it was not a firing range. I saw a pic of this somehwere a long time ago taken from Hwy 6 and what is now Bush Drive.
