C., DECEMBER 9, Mobilization Is Planned For 29th Guard Division StIE Oficerl‘ Un;t Comm‘ndef‘ ‘fld Amy Instructors Participate in Military Con{erence HQIB. T APPEARS now-that th 29th Na- tional Guard Division will have its first mobllisation since its organisation, when the entire outfit may be assembled at the Pennsylvania State Militia camp at Indiantown, Pa. The mobilisation plans were the subject of an all-day conference held at the Sixth Street Armory here yesterday of Maj. Gen. Milton A. Reckord of Maryland, di- vision commander, the members of his staff and the officers commanding the numerous units of which the division is composed. Detalls of the prospective move- ment of troops and their settlement in the camp for a period of two weeks were thoroughly discussed by the officers who attended the con- ference. Although np announcement has been made, it is understood that the entire movement of troops to the camp is predicated on arrangement of motor transportation. In this way war conditions will be simulated. If the War Department gives its final approval to the plans, this area for several weeks this Summer will take on & warlike aspect, with thou- sands of troops moving from all sec- tions of Maryland and Virginia and from this city to the proposed mob- ilization site at Indiantown. In addition to providing for rigid fleld training for the troops, it is probable, that the military authori- ties in charge of the training pro- gram will have to make arrange- ments for the recreation facilities in the camp, in the same manner that they were made during the World War. While the camp is located in the mountain section of Pennsylvania, about 35 miles from Harrisburg, it was said that there are not any extensive Summer resorts in the vicinity to which the men could go for recreation while in the camp. For the most part, they have their evenings off, except that they prob- ably will be engaged for several days in both day and night maneuvers, as there will be & divisicnal war game. Officers of the division have been working since the division was or- ganized on such a division camp, and it is the hope that the plans can be perfected so that all of the units can be assembled in one place. The proposed camp site is said to be ideal for the training of all units, includ- ing the Artillery. There is sald to be an excellent Artillery range right on the camp, which is about a mile and a half wide, and approximately seven miles long. There the Artil- lery gunners will have opportunity to test their range-finding equipment and to shoot at the mountain tar- gets. The Artillery fire will give a touch of realism to the training pro- gram, which will be under the direc- tion of Maj. Gen. Reckord. It will take scores of motor vehicles of various kinds to move the vast army of troops, including heavy trac- tors to move the big fleld pieces with which some of the units in the division are equipped. A tentative program for the pro- posed division training was submitted to the individual commanders some time ago, and they were instructed to bring to the meeting any proposed changes. These were thoroughly threshed out, but no announcement was made as to the perfection of any definite plans. After the general pro- gram is worked out, the individual transportation problems will have to be considered so that the movement can be timed for the various units to arrive at the scene of mobilization at spproximately the same time. This will involve many units leaving several days prior to others, as some of the tions are located in the ex- treme southwestern part of Virginia. instructed to confer fully with Regular Army instructors to. their respective units, in order that any proposed changes or modifications might reflect the opinions of both the unit commanders and the instructors. A number of the instructors sttended the conference. Appointment of graduates from Re- serve Officer Training Corps camps as commissioned officers is to be made in the National Guard instead ‘of in the Officers Reserve Corps.
