Gen. March pointed out that one of the complicating factors in demobili- zatlon was the fact that units, espe- cially those which had seen service. had but little of their original local character left, hecause of reorganiza- tlon and the use of replacements Units thinned by service were filled with new men drawn from other sec- tions in most cases. Gen. March said that it would have been unfair to have donc otherwise, be would require the states diers have suffered the et loss amining boards ar es to furnish an excessive number of | replacements. The pracess of discharging men from the service 1is by no meuns a simple operailon,” he continued. “In order clearly and unmistakably to set- tle the discharged soldier's status nd account with justice to him and | to the government, complete papers and records of various Kinds must be made out in detail.
