THAE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. O, JULY & 1930—PART TWO. Army and Navy News ARMY. ‘Though Brig. Gen. Herbert Deakyne, who completed on June 27 his tour of duty as assistant to the chief of Army Engineers, could have retired as a brigadier _ general prior to the expi- ration of his term of office, he has elected to remain in the active serv- ice and has revert- ed to his perma- nent rank of col- onel in the Corps of Engincers. As a result, he will re- tire when he at- tains the age of 64 on December 29, 1931, as a colonel, as the law for as- sistants to chiefs of branches is not the same on the subject of retirement as it is for the chiefs of branches, who, if eligible for retirement, can retire at any time after the expiration of their tours with the rank held by them as a chief of branch. In order to retain their rank, assistants to chiefs of branches, if eligible for retirement, must Tetire on or before the date of the ex- Ppiration of their term of office. Gen. Deakyne has become so valuable to the office of the chief of Engineers that the Secretary of War approved the application of the chief of Engineers, Maj. Gen. Lytle Brown, for authority to assign Gen. Deakyne to duty in his office as a member of the board of en- gineers for rivers and harbors. This means that Gen. Deakyne will remain in Washington. In applying for the retention of Gen. Deakyne in Washing- ton, Gen. Brown took into consideration Gen. Deakyne's long experience as a Herbert Deakyne, member of the board“and his familiar- ity with projects of river and harbor improvement now under way. ‘Though the Army uniform board still has under consideration the review of the revised Army uniform regulations and specifications, which include the blue uniform, medical officers have been informed as to the proper trouser equipment that should be worn with a blue outfit. It was pointed out in this column some time ago that when the blue uniform is worn, the color of the branch concerned will be denoted in the piping on the trousers of the uni~ form. Commissioned personnel of the Infantry will wear blue, Field Artillery red, while those officers of the Medical Department will wear a maroon piping. Dark blue doeskin with 1'-inch ma- roon stripe, with li-inch wide white piping on either side has been pre- scribed for the trousers that will be worn by medical officers for the blue dress uniform, full dress uniform and the special evening dress uniform. The uniform board is still engaged in reviewing the uniform regulations and specifications, and though nothing is known as to what will constitute the final form of the regulations, it is un- derstood that those officers of the Mili- tary Establishment who have equipped themselves with blue uniforms, made in accordance With present regulations, will be permitted to wear these uni- forms as long as they are serviceable, ‘Though Brig. Gen. Willam H. ‘Tschappat was appointed to that rank and duty as assistant to the chief of Ordnancg for the four-year period be- ginning June 10, he will not arrive in ‘Washington until some time during the month of August. He sailed from Ma- nila, Philippine Islands, on June 27 and upon arrival at San Francisco, Calif., he will proceed to Benicia Ar- senal, Calif.; Fort Lewis, Wash.; Og- den Ordnance Depot, Utah; 7th Corps Area headquarters, Omaha, Nebr.; in connection with the field service activi- tles of the Ordnance Department. From Omaha Gen. Tschappat will come direct to Washington. NAVY. Thirty officers of the Navy will begin tomorrow a six,months’ course in sub- marine training at the submarine school.
