But worse still is thefactthat | of the half-enough men now In the ranks, less than half are of any value In a military sense. The backbone of an army is In- fantry, Tt is the infantry which delivers) |the “punch.” No battle can be won without ef- fictent Infantry. ‘The prime requisite for a good In- fantryman (outside of the qualities of discipline, courage and ability to take care of himself in the field) is ability to shoot. There were 111,140 officers and | men of the organized militia of the | United States who in 1913 were armed with the rifle and required| |to pursue the prescribed course of! | Fange practice during the year 1912.| Of this number, but 66,974 actual- |ly were present and fired on the range during the year. | | It is not meant by this that this! |mnumber actually pursued the pre | seribed course, but merely that this |number had more or less outdoor | range practice | | This was exactly 60.26 per cent of those required to get such prac- | tice—less than two-thirds.
