1957 National Rifle & Pistol Matches Aug. 9 - Sept. 10
The 1957 National Rifle and Pistol Matches were superior in every regard. This was the result of careful preparation and intense effort by those groups responsible for the operation.
Attendance approached that of the late 1930's during which period the number of Service rifle shooters reached an all-time high. The number of pistol and small-bore shooters in the championship aggregates exceeded the figures for any previous year.
The overall quality of scores is evidence that Match officials were not the only ones who prepared for the competition. The cream of civilian and police shooters were there alongside the best of Service shooters representing the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Coast Guard, and the Air Force. Predominating in the pistol and high power rifle team matches were the All-Army and All-Marine squads. Some idea of the preparation of the military teams for the National Matches is shown by the activity of the U.S. Army rifle squad. These 85 men trained for two months at Fort Niagara, New York prior to Camp Perry. The results are clear evidence that the training paid off.
Among the other shooters at Camp Perry were 68 National Guard teams (41 rifle and 27 pistol) sent to the National Matches by the National Guard Bureau in order attend the Small Arms Firing Schools and to compete. Forty-six civilian teams (18 rifle and 28 pistol) attended the Small Arms Firing Schools and fired in the match competition under the program the National Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice. Excellent showings were made by shooters from both groups.
Two factors which contributed to the excellence of the competition were the weather and the arms and ammunition used. Weather during most of the matches was fair and sunny without too much wind. There were a few bad rainy days. Worst was September 10, the day the National Trophy Rifle Team Match was fired. Rain beat down steadily throughout the event and some shooters on the firing line shot from positions in the mud. The winner of the High Power Service Rifle Championship this year scored higher than did the winner of the High Power Open Rifle Championship, for the first time since these dual high power rifle championship events have been fired. Some credit for this showing must be given to the quality of the Service arms and ammunition used. For example, the Service rifle ammunition used was the highest quality match manufactured at Frankford Arsenal in 1957.
The small-bore rifle events and the pistol events were the same as in the 1956 National Matches. There were several innovations in the high power rifle competition. For one, the high power rifle aggregates this year consisted of 150 shots for a possible score of 750, an increase of 100 points in the aggregate over last year. The 750-point total required the shooter to fire the equivalent of three times over the National Trophy Rifle course. The historic Leech Cup winner was determined this year in a shoot-off. On September 4 the five high-scoring competitors in each relay that had been fired on September 3, shot a second time over the course to determine the place winners. Class winners were determined by the scores fired the first time over the course. The President's Hundred and the President's Retreat were revived this year. The President's Hundred is a special award group of the top-ranking 100 competitors in the President's Match. Each was presented a metallic brassard signifying his placement in this outstanding group. The winner of the President's Match, Lieutenant Joe A. Deckert, USAR, and previous President's Match winners reviewed the President's Hundred in a special retreat ceremony.
This year several new trophies were placed in competition, and several new awards instituted. The new trophies include the Mellon Trophy to the High National Guard team in the National Trophy Pistol Team Match, the Leatherneck Trophy to the high civilian team in the Infantry Trophy Team Match, and the U.S. Coast Guard Memorial Trophy to the high Reserve team in the National Trophy Pistol Team Match. All three of these trophies are awarded by the National Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice. The new awards this year included bronze medals to members of the of the high civilian pistol team in the National Trophy Pistol Team Match, a selected and engraved .45 caliber Colt National Match Model pistol to the winner of the National Trophy Individual Pistol Match, and a selected and engraved .30 caliber M1 rifle to the winner of the National Trophy Individual Rifle Match.
A most important part of the 1957 Matches were the Small Arms Firing Schools (rifle and pistol), the Junior and Tyro School, and the NRA Instructor-Leadership Course. The purpose of these schools (except the Junior and Tyro School, which teaches novices the fundamentals of .22 rifle shooting) is the training of shooters in the techniques and methodology of teaching rifle and pistol marksmanship. An exceptional instructing job was done by personnel from the Weapons Department at The Infantry Center, Fort Benning, Georgia.

Marine's Rally Tops Benner At Perry
CAMP PERRY, O., Aug. 16 - Marine Lieut. William W. McMillan, Jr., Turtle Creek, Pa., yesterday became the second person ever to win America's two highest pistol marksmanship honors - the national pistol championship sponsored by the National Rifle Association and the national trophy individual pistol match.
McMillan came from behind to win the 1957 national pistol title from the defending champion, Army Master Sgt. Huelet Benner. The Marine was nine points behind Benner entering the last of 12 matches in the three-day pistol marathon and thought so little of his chances he couldn't believe he had won, even when Benner told him.
Benner finished with an aggregate of 2610, two behind McMillan. Confirmation of the scores showed they finished 1-2 followed by Army First Lieut. David C. Miller, with 2603; Sergt. William B. Blankenship, 2602, and six-time national champion Harry Reeves, a Marine reserve, Lieut. Colonel, firing with the Detroit police team, 2599.
After the NRA team championship matches today, McMillan tomorrow will defend his title in the national trophy individual pistol match he won last year with a Camp Perry record score of 291 of a possible 300. In the afternoon this year's pistol shoot will close with the national trophy team pistol match - second of Camp Perry's big five trophy events.

First Marine in History to take National Crown
CAMP PERRY, O. - Marine 1st Lt. William W. McMillan became the first Leatherneck in history to win the national pistol championship when he edged five-time champ and defender, Army MSgt. Huelet L. Benner, as the pistol phase of the National Rifle and Pistol Matches ended here Aug. 17.
McMillan had to overcome a nine-point deficit going into the final match for the title. The final tabulation showed McMillan with a three-day, 12-match aggregate of 2612 to Benner's 2610 of a possible 2700.
Army 1st Lt. David C. Miller placed third with 2603 and Army Sgt. William B. Blankenship was fourth with 2602. Fifth spot was taken by Marine Corps Reserve Lt. Col. Harry W. Reeves, firing with the Detroit Police, with a 2599.

MarCorps Pistol Team Finishes Perry Shoot With 20 Medals
On Aug. 17 the 28 members of the Marine Corps Pistol Team ended six days of highly competitive shooting to take the National Pistol Championship, more than 80 places in the master class in all matches, and 20 place medals in the Individual National Pistol Matches.
Marines took fourth, 11th and 14th out of 19 places in the National Trophy Pistol Team Match.
First Lieutenant William W. McMillan, Jr., a member of the Marine Corps Marksmanship Training Unit, Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, was star of the Corps' showing in the contest which drew over 1400 of the nation's outstanding pistol competitors.
As winner of the 1957 National Rifle Association Pistol Championship, Lt. McMillan became the first man in the history of American match-shooting to hold simultaneously the Custer Trophy and the Harrison Cup, the two top pistol awards in the nation.
Within 48 hours however, McMillan lost the National Trophy Individual Pistol Match (Custer Cup) to the Army's MSgt. Huelet (Joe) Benner - by a bare 2 points. Thus McMillan became the second and Benner the third man to ever to have held both trophies.
In the National Trophy Team Matches, five of the Corps' best handgun men were not qualified to shoot because they had been on winning teams within the past three years.
This in effect threw the burden of the National Trophy Team Match on men who had not reached the peak of their shooting skill.
Even so the Marines' Blue Team was only 28 points, in a 1200 point match, below the winning score of 1136 by the Army Grey Team.
The Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, pistol team placed first in the expert class, .22 caliber pistol match.
First Lt. McMillan also won the International Rapid Fire with a score of 583x600/60x, the .38 caliber Timed Fire with 200x200/12x. He placed second in the .22 caliber Rapid Fire.
MSgt. Jewell C. Palmer was second in the .45 caliber Rapid Fire and SSgt. Edward S. Sarver took third in the .22 caliber National Match Course.
The Marine Corps Blue Team placed second in .38 caliber Center Fire and .45 caliber Matches.

Corps Experts Top Country's Best Shooters In National Competition
The country's top marksmen outshot both the weatherman and the record book to wind up the 1957 National Rifle and Pistol Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio.
Leading the members of the Marine Corps Rifle Team, Camp Matthews, was SSgt. Michael Pietroforte, who copped the 1957 National Service Rifle Championship against a field of better than 1500 of America's best big bore rifle shooters.
the Marine, who had never before won honors in National rifle competition, also bested the field for the Service Rifle Division of the President's Match, the NRA Building Match, and placed high in the standings of many other matches during the shoot.
Marine rifleman TSgt. Paul V. Bailey broke the National Match Record to win the coveted National Trophy Individual Rifle Match.
Spurred on by America's desire to win in international competition at the 1960 Olympics, two Marines fired top scores in the International High Power Free Rifle Aggregate to take first and second place honors.
LtCol. Emmett C. Swanson, USMCR, exhibited his ability with the free rifle by winning the aggregate. Following closely behind Col. Swanson was SSgt. Emmett D. Duncan, of the Marine Corps Rifle Team, who fired two points under the Colonel's score to take second place honors.
Mainstay of the Marine Corps' pistol attack was 1stLt. William W. McMillan, Jr.
Lt. McMillan picked up the 1957 National Pistol Championship, in addition to the .38 caliber Championship, International Rapid Fire Silhouette Match, Clarke Trophy Match, and the Center Fire Timed Fire Match.
George Van Orden, a 17-year-old Marine Reservist, won the Crowell Trophy, the National Junior Open Championship, and placed in the Marine Corps Cup Match.
Five military squads, three Corps and two Army, broke the old records established last year by the Marine Corps in the National Trophy Rifle Team Match.
Throughout a steady downpour it was anybody's match, but the Army Blue team finally broke through to win, followed by Marine Corps Western, Gray, and Blue Teams, and the Army Gray Team.
Marine Corps shooters swept competitors from the field during individual high power rifle firing to cop almost every trophy contest.
In 24 high power rifle matches, both team and individual Marine marksmen won 41 place positions, including 13 wins, 14 seconds, and 14 thirds, to completely outclass all opposition.
