As a result of the studies made in connection with the various exercises held by National Guard troops in the fleld, the Militia Bureau of the War Department has found the need for maintaining the best communigation system possible. These command post and field exercises, it was pointed out, are increasing in number, and the neces- nm)t training signal troops is empha- sized. Tactical problems in the field more nearly represent combat conditions for llxnnil troops than any others, a bulletin of the bureau says, since the actual dis- tances existing between command posts and the message traffic load is practi- cally the same as for warfare conditions. For this reason every effort should be made to increase the time allotted to the specialists’ training of ‘the signal- man during the armory training period.

The company was di- the Mili into groups corresponding to the number of subjects and the groups passed from one subject to another, ac- cording to a carefully planned time shedule. i The instructors for each subject were selected well in advance of the drill date, coached in their duties and as- sisted in preparing the stage setting! ‘most. llppm riate and helpful in the more suitable for outdoor treatment. For example, the stage was set for mak- ing of a road sketch by chalk-marking a road along one side and end of the armory floor. Along this road at inter- vals cards were placed to indicate the location of a bridge of state type ai dimensions or of some other terrain fea. ture that should appear on the road sketch.
