Miss Lillian Chenoweth, president and 10th Cavalry History Fort Myer Troop Has Created Colorful Background Through Years. . By Malinche Macevoy. OR the first time since the Machine Gun Troop of the 10th Cavalry has been stationed at Fort Myer its members were attached to the 3d Cavalry when it left the post recently to make a six- day march, terminating at Fort Meade, Md. There were six days of regimental maneuvers, in which the Machine Gun Troop of the 10th Cav~ alry took part. This was followed by another six-day corps area maneuver. The troop together with the 3d Cav- alry and 16th Field Artillery units have now returned to the post in Virginia for routine duty. The World War has without doubt received the credit for the develop- ment of machine gunnery. But from a historical standpoint six years be- fore this war, during the 1908 train- ing season in the Philippines, the Machine Gun Platoon of the 10th Cavalry demonstrated the practi- cability of direct overhead and in- direct machine-gun fire. This work of the 10th Cavalry Machine Gun Platoon was discussed and printed in service journals from England to Australia. And there are perhaps very few persons who know that this same 10th Cavalry Machine Gun group is right here in the vicinity of the District of Columbia. This troop also furnishes the fa- miliar escort for the distinguished visitors who are guests of the com- manding officer at the famous exhibi- tion rides held every Winter in the riding hall. Readers can picture in their minds that colorful array of perfectly matched chestnut horses, their riders each carrying an upright staff with a gay yellow and red pen- | nant flying from its top. They await | the firing of the required number of salutes which announce the visitor's arrival on the post, the number de- pending upon the visitor's rank. The guest is then escorted to the com- manding officer's quarters and later to the riding hall. Martial music is in the air as spectators within the hall witness the h Page.)

They swing around the hall at a brisk trot, hoofs tracking and scattering freshly rolled tanbark, leather creaking and chains jingling pleasantly. When they arrive at the opposite | side of the hall the officer in the lead makes a sharp turn and rides toward the center of the hall, facing the commanding officer’s box. The escort lines up in back of him. Almost im- mediately an impressive-looking car makes its appearance, circles the hall and stops in front of the commanding officer’s box to permit its occupants to alight, and as quickly disappears. ‘The honor guest and the command- ing officer walk up and down inspect- ing the escort, and then take their seats in the box.
