Image nop
    • Description: The UVM ROTC Band (aka "Co-ed Band") in formation in front of the Waterman Building. Director Dr. Joseph Lechnyr (d. 1959) is in the front row, center. This photo is published in the 1946 Ariel, the UVM student yearbook, on p.111. The Ariel explains that this was the 2nd year the band was "supplemented by girl members," presumably because male musicians were involved in the war effort. All but 5 members of this band are women. Photo #2.

              • Description: The UVM ROTC Band in front of the Waterman building, with director Dr. Joseph Lechnyr (d. 1959) in the front row, center.

A similar photo was published in the 1945 Ariel, the UVM student yearbook, on p. 83. Photo #2.
