Erie Golden Blades Lose To

Collegian Sports Writer
The Behrend All-Stars ham
mered the Erie Golden Blades 3-1
in a volleyball match last Friday.
It could easily have been reversed
if the teams had been on the ice.
However, the teams were on the
volleyball court trying to raise
money for Behrend’s new net
system.
Comprising the All-Stars were
Jan Wilson, women's volleyball
and softball coach; Doug Young,
men’s baseball, coach; Duane
Crider, intramural director; Bob
Hostetler, assistant professor of
math; Bob Light, assistant pro
fessor of biology; Brian Wallace,
coordinator of public information
and Biology Professor Ed
Masteller.
The Blades fielded Public Rela
tions Assistant and Secretary
Stephanie Hultberg, Coach Ron
Hansis, Behrend student and
Blades Sales and Community
Relations Director Bob Phillips,
goaltenders Jim Warden and
Dave Moffitt, defenseman Terry
Shook, and right wing Don Shaw.
The Blades were in trouble
from the start, dropping game one
15-3 to- the All-Stars. The closest
the Blades could get was 4-1
before the All-Stars jumped out to
a commanding 8-1 lead. Two
more points were all the Blades
got before the All-Stars ran off
the seven points necessary for a
15-3 win.
The second game was closer but
the All-Stars pulled out the 15-11
win. With the All-Stars leading
4-1, the Blades scored three
straight points for a 4-4 tie. The
teams exchanged serves until Mof
fitt got the serve for the Blades.
The Blades used teamwork and
good volleying to lead for the first
time at 4-9. The All-Stars came
right back and tied it at 9-9. Blade

stitute. From there I attended
schools at Ft. Knox, KY and Ft.
Benning, GA. My first assignment
was scout platoon leader at Ft.
Carson, CO. I then changed
duties several times there, first as
tank platoon leader, then tank
company executive officer, then
as armor battalion logistics officer
(S-4).
I resigned from active duty in
1978 and began working in the
civilian job market as a manage
ment consultant.
In 19811 returned to active duty
and attended Armor Officer Ad
vanced Course at Ft. Knox, KY.
From there I was assigned to the
82nd Airborne Div. at Ft. Bragg,
NC. My first duty there was to
serve as an armor battalion assis
tant operations officer (S-3).
I then served as an armor bat
talion maintenance officer, and
then as an armor company
commander.
That brought me through 1984.
Late in 1984 I was transferred
here, where I took up the position
of Assistant Professor of Military
Science for Penn State-Behrend.”

the 73rd regiment of the 82nd Air

is the only Airborne Armor unit in
the ‘free’ world.) “What kind of
tanks did you jump with?”
Donahue: “We jumped with
the M551A1- A r m o re d
Reconnaissance-Airborne Assault
Vehicle. We call it the Sheridan.”
Collegian: “Exactly how does
one drop a tank?”
Donahne: “With LAPES—Low
Altitude Parachute Extraction
System. A C-130 sweeps about
five feet off the ground. The
plane’s cargo door then opens and
a pilot chute pulls the three cargo
chutes out the door. The chutes
pull the tank out of the plane. The
Army is considering going back to
the old ‘heavy drop’ where the
plane flys along at 1000 feet and
the tank is pushed out the door
and descends on three cargo
chutes.”
Collegian: “If you could
change one military custom, or
create a new one, what would you
do?”
Donah oc: “I would like to see
the current trend of eliminating
military customs reversed. The
out-of-date traditions can be
eliminated, but the military
tendency is to centralize all activ-
ties and this goes against my ideals
and principles.”
