The men are not as familiar, however, with their duties as might be ex- pected. Discipline is very slack. and regular attendance at drills should be enforced.

By reference to Cavalry Drill Regula- tions (paragraph 101), your correspondent will find that men do not ‘port arms’ after lowering hammer, but resume the ‘sling carbine’ or ‘order.’ “S. By reference to Cycle-Infantry Drill Regulations (paragraph 150), he will further observe that men bring their pieces to the ‘order,’ and not to ‘port arms,’ from ‘right shoulder’ at muster. “6. Concerning the movements mounted at the conclusion of inspection, the com- manding officer has this to say. Had your correspondent studied his ‘tactics’ he would have seen that there is no such thing as a ‘rear rank’ In a mounted formation, and that this company was not paraded in pla- toon formation on that evening, but in ‘column of sections.” “When the company was thrown forward the supposition was that the enemy were within point-blank range, and under such circumstances the custom is to fire stand- ing.

One man came to “inspection arms” too soon. One man. at inspection of saber had his thumb on left side of gripe. One ser- geant had a torn gauntlet. Six men failed and assisted the injured young men to their home at Linden.
