CURTIS PREPARES
FOR DUTY ABROAD
WITH HIS OUTFIT
Howard P. Curtis, former general
storekeeper for the A. E. C., is now
a major in the United States army,
and in keeping with the rank he
holds, has been placed in command
of a labor battalion for service in
France. The battalion under his
command, now stationed at Camp
Johnston, Jacksonville, Florida, is
going through the last phase of the
necessary training and, at the time
Curtis wrote, expected to embark in
about a week’s time for “Over
There.” - ■* * -
Two of the Nenana boys are in
his battalion; Jack Hunter is in the
motor transportation corps and
Charles Ingersoll is in the butcher
training class. Ingersoll was made
a sergeant instructor in his class
on the recommendation of Major
Curtis.
For the week preceeding actual
embarkation, the men are given four
hours of drill each day, the long
hikes being eliminated. The men of
the battallion were given gas drill
■ and Major Curtis says he had his
first dose of it, when he was re
I quired to go through the gas cham
ber. Two more such trips, he says,
will complete his training in this
branch of modern warfare, made in
Germany.
The labor and stevedore compan
ies forming the battalion under Maj.
Curtis’ command is made up of six
commissioned officers, forty-on'
non-commissioned officers, white
and colored men.
Major Curtis says that he is get
ting rather proficient in drill and
that he has been placed in charge
of a bunch of “rookies”, who are
being put through their first drills;
he has also been put in charge ot
the barracks occupied by the troops
under his command, which he con
siders the hardest job he has, as he
is held personally responsible for its
proper management and has to sec
that the regulations are adhered to
by the soldiers, in every detail. He
speaks very favorably of his men,
charcterizing them as “A fine bunch
of fellows.”
A recent order, prohibiting the
use by the troops of pleasure cars
east Of the Mississippi river on
Sunday, curtails the use of much
of their liberty, he says, and a trip
to the beach planned by the officers
had to be abandoned in consequence
on the Sunday immediately follow
ing the issuance of the order.
Major Curtis sends greetings to
all his friends in Nenana and states
that he will write again if he has
time to do so after arrival “Over
There.”
