"To symbolize both our new beginning and our tradition” at Harvard, Army Lt. Col. Timothy J. Hall, commanding officer of the Paul Revere Battalion at MIT, showed Harvard President Drew Faust a saber that had been issued on May 30, 1916 to Capt. Constant Cordier, commander of the 1,000-student Harvard Regiment, precursor of the Army ROTC. The saber will be on display in the new Army ROTC office in Hilles, said Hall, where it resumes “its rightful place at Harvard."
