assistant commander, 2nd Armored
Division, Fort Hood, who will pre
sent reserve commissions to 243
Army ROTC students in Guion
Hall tomorrow, is a native of Con
yers, Ga.
After graduating from West
Point in 1920, General Gailey en

ant and attended the Infantry
School at Fort Benning, Ga.
A three-year tour of duty in
Panama, 1924-27, was followed by
duty with the 17th Heavy Tank
Battalion at the Tank School, Fort
Meade, Md.
He was assistant executive offi
cer of the Experimental Mechan
ized Force during the summer of
1928. Assignment to the 16th
Light Tank Battalion followed his
graduation from the Tank School.
He returned to the Tank School as
an instructor after completing a

etts Institute of Technology in
1929.
Tours of duty followed with the

BAFB Activation
Planned for Friday
Bryan Air Force Base will be re
activated June 1 as a jet training
school under command of Col.
James Crawford McGehee, the fly
ing training air force said Wednes
day.
(Continued from Page 2)
sian division is smaller than the
U.S. division. And the Russians
designate as divisions a lot of units
which in this country are not or
ganized along division lines.
The average U.S. infantry divi
sion at war strength contains
18,000 men, campared to the pres
ent Russian average of 8,800. Our
forces are backed up in the com
bat zone, moreover, by fighting
men who are even more numerous
than the men in the divisions —
combat troops in the artillery, ar
mored forces, reconnaissance, engi
neers, signal communications, etc.
In many small theaters of war no
divisions are used—just regimental
combat teams or special purpose
forces.
One high-ranking Army expert
on personnel says the Army has
about 65,000 men for one division
of 18,000 men. To explain where
the extra 47,000 men are stationed
he sets up the idea of a division
“slice” of the Army. To picture
the division “slice” he assumes the
division is in combat 1,500 miles
from U.S. shores.
Many of the men in the “slice”
have nothing to do with a divi
sion. The “slice” is just an ac
count of the number of men who
are assigned to various duties
when a division is in combat 1,500
miles from U.S. shores.
First are the 18,000 men in the
division. There are 23,000 more
who would be combat troops in
artillery, armor, signals etc., not
assigned to any division. That
means 64 per cent of the total
‘slice” would be in combat.
Not in combat would be 7,150
troops in communication work or
11 per cent of the total “slice”.
They man port facilities on the
foreign shore, store and deliver
.supplies over there, keep highway
transport and railroads going, run
hospitals, maintain telegraph, tel
ephone, radio, etc.
In the United States would be
the remaining 25 per cent of the
“slice” — 16,250 men. Of these,
13,000 or 20 per cent would be in
training, including transients—men
shipping out and coming back. Sick
and wounded in hospitals would
number about 1,950, or 3 per cent.
And 1,300, or 2 per cent would be
engaged in administrative wo;rk>
research, supply, home port facili
ties, etc.

Two Latin words, rich in sentiment! To
some they awaken memories of ivy-covered
halls. But to many more they recall happy
days in the old country schoolhouse.
Literally, they mean fostering mother. And
that’s what a school becomes, a third parent,
preparing her children for life.
But all of us need to realize still another
“fostering” parent, The Church—the earthly
tutor who reveals to men the love of the
Heavenly Father.
We never graduate from the Church! Some
times we play hookey for a while. But sooner
or later most of us discover that there is no
substitute for the spiritual “upbringing” the
Church provides.
And that discovery is the most thrilling
commencement in life, for with it begins man’s
achievement of the highest goals in living.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest /ac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization c an
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sak.e
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support, Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
