Cadets Don and Jim Mercer, along with their friend Terry Mackson, are summoned by Colonel Morrell to round up every trophy displayed at Woodcrest Military Academy—except for one prized relic, the Class of 1933 cup. The missing cup has slipped through the school’s records, and the three boys feel a growing duty to uncover what happened to it before the term ends.
Drawing on the teamwork that carried them through past summer escapades, the trio begins to sift through dusty archives, question longtime staff, and follow a trail of whispered rumors. As they piece together fragments of a long‑forgotten story, they discover a web of silence that threatens the academy’s honor. Their investigation promises a blend of clever sleuthing and the camaraderie that makes every challenge feel like an adventure, inviting listeners to join the Mercer boys as they set out to restore the missing trophy and protect their school’s legacy.
