Sites for annual encampments of four of the units composing the Na tional Guard of the District of Co- lumbia have been approved by the headquarters of the 3rd Corps Area of the Army, at Baltimore, Md. These four units will go to Cascade, Md., near Pen Mar, where the State of Maryland has purchased a: permanent camp site for its militia, and it means a change of encampment for these \ipits which is expected to Increase the interest of the men. The militia headquarters is awaiting anxlously information as to the camp sites of the other units composing the Guard, and ‘particularly the site for the 121st Regiment of Engineers, which it is desired to have go to Vir: ginia Beach, Va. 8 The units which will go to Cascade | and the dates of the encampments are | as follows: Company A, 3724 Infan- try (colored troops), July 10 to 24, which is the same period that the Maryland colored troops will be in camp; Headquarters, 29th National Guard Division; Headquarters Detach- | ment, 29th Diviston, and Headquarters | and Headquarters Detachment, Troops, 29th Division, all three of | which units will train from August 14 to 28. Heretofore these particular units have gone to Virginia Beach, Va., consistently each year since their | organization There appears to be little doubt that the request for the 260th Coast | Artillery to go to Fort Monroe, Va.,| will be approved. This unit has al- ways gone there, but as it is a Coast Artillery unit, about the only nearby | place it could train would be at the de fenses at Fort Monroe. | The only question about which there is any concern now is the 121s Regiment of Engineers, which re- quires engineer training, and ample facilities for this are found at the Army’s engineer post at Fort Hum phreys, Va. However, it was pointed out by Guard officials te consistently send this regiment so near to home | each year hecomes monotonous and | shows its effect on morale and enlist- ments. To,increase the interest, and consequently improve the morale, it i belleved that it would be more desirable_this vear to send the regi ment to Virginia Beach. Here, it was added, the officers and men could work out problems in a territory in which they would work should they he called into Federal serv s this | is the mobilization center of the 29th National Guard Division. The only question which might prevent the regiment from being sent to the ginia Beach camp is that of transpor- tation, but it is contended by the Guard officials that this will be well spent and more than set off by the increase in interest and morale among the men resultant from a trip some distance from the home station. Four applications have been re- ceived at brigade headquarters from a5 many enlisted men of Battery A, 260th Coast Artillery, for permission to take the examination to be held January 12 for the formation of an eligibility list from which will he picked men for commissioning as second lieutenants of coast artillery as vacancies occur in this battalion. A new battery now is being formed, and it is expected that those who pass the examination will receive commissions within a short time. The applications have been received from Corpl. Russell M. King, Pv Morris A. Miller, Corpl. James M Votava and Corpl. Donald J. Me- Carthy. It is the hope and belief at headquarters that more members of the command will make applications to take the examinations before tha date set. As a result of an examination re- cently held for enlisted men to be second lleutenants of infantry it was announced at headquartersthe names of the following men have been placed on the eligibility list and will be commissioned as soon as vacancies occur in the infantry branches: Technical Sergt.
