WASHINGTON 25, D. C., SO June 1949 

To THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMY: 

The annual report of the Chief, National Guard Bureau for the 

fiscal year ending 30 June 1949 is respectfully submitted. 

This report summarizes the activities of the National Guard 

Bureau and the progress of the National Guard throughout the 

States, Territories, and District of Columbia during the year. 

I am proud to present this record of National Guard accomplishments. The tremendous task of organizing, equipping, and training 

the National Guard, the largest peacetime Guard in the history of our 

country, has presented numerous problems, many of which have been 

solved. With demonstrated energy and devotion the National Guard 

is striving for solutions to current problems. During fiscal year 1949 

notable gains in strength and in the number of organized units have 

been made ; facilities have been improved; more equipment has been 

issued. Particular attention has been given to training. The 

National Guard is keenly aware of its vital mission in the program 

for National Security. It will continue to devote its "best effort to 

the attainment of the objectives assigned.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL 

GUARD BUREAU 

INTRODUCTION 

Fiscal year 1949 has been a year of great activity in the National 

Guard Bureau and in the National Guard. 

The National Guard Bureau has been reorganized to include an 

Air Division and an Army Division. 

The National Guard has forged steadily ahead. It has increased in 

strength and in units. All Air National Guard units have been 

organized. Army units have been reorganized under the new tables 

of organization and equipment developed as a result of World War 

II experience. 

Improved training programs have been implemented, both Army 

and Air. Continuing efforts to achieve maximum benefit from training time resulted also in the authorization of civilian employee 

administrative assistants to free unit commanders for training activities; pre-camp mess and administrative schools were held; and weekend firing periods were authorized. Extensive use has been made of 

Army service schools. The results of armory and field training inspections have been gratifying. 

There has been a steady flow of equipment and supplies and considerable improvement in facilities. Although no satisfactory solution has yet been found to the critical armory shortage, a nonarmory 

construction program involving $31,000,000 was undertaken. Flying 

facilities, summer camp facilities, and target ranges have been improved. The operation and maintenance of facilities by the States 

with Federal assistance under service contracts has been very satisfactory. Maintenance programs have been reviewed and revised; 

Improved arrangements for repairs have been implemented. 

In addition to equipment received on a free issue basis, some 

funds were expended this year for vitally needed equipment not 

available for free issue. The screening of remaining war surplus 

stocks netted some additional National Guard equipment. 

Notable advances have been made in the National Guard. Many 

problems have been solved. We are exploring all possible solutions 

in our efforts to solve problems which remain. 

1 
NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU, REORGANIZATION 

The National Guard Bureau was reorganized 1 October 1948 to 

include an Army and an Air Force Division. The reorganization was 

in keeping with the National Security Act of 1947 which specified that 

"the National Guard Bureau shall, in addition to the functions and 

duties performed by it for the Department of the Army, be charged 

with similar duties for the Department of the Air Force, and shall be 

the channel of communication between the Air Force and the several 

States on all matters pertaining to the Air National Guard." Previously, matters concerning the Air National Guard had been the 

responsibility of an "Aviation Group" in the National Guard Bureau. 

The Office of the Chief, National Guard Bureau, now includes a 

planning office to supervise and coordinate final plans on the operations and responsibilities of the National Guard, including policies, 

forecasts, estimates, new projects, mobilization planning, budget and 

fiscal matters, public support, and legislation. It also includes an 

administrative office and an information office. Each division, 

Army and Air, has a budget and fiscal office, since separate budgets 

are required, and a plans, personnel, organization and training, and 

logistics group. The Air Division, in addition, has a communications group. 

Chiefs of the Army and Air Division are selected from general 

officers of the National Guard of the United States, with basic service 

that of the division concerned. Division chiefs, authorized the rank 

of major general, report to the Chief, National Guard Bureau. 

MEN AND UNITS 

Strength 

The National Guard grew to the all-time high of 356,473 men during 

fiscal year 1949—51.9 percent of the ultimate 1951 goal of 686,187. 

There was a net increase during the year of 38,616 officers and enlisted 

men. 

To keep National Guard strength within the 341,000 figure set by 

the budget, strength ceilings were placed on all States and Territories 

and the District of Columbia in June 1948. Natural attrition permitted the lifting of the ceilings in November. A vigorous recruiting 

campaign brought Guard strength to its goal of 341,000 on 31 March, 

and increased authorizations of 20,000 for Army and 4,324 for Air 

permitted the final strength of 356,473.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 3 

The actual strength of the National Guard, 30 June 1949, totaled 

356,473 officers and enlisted men as follows: 

Officers 

Army 25,808 

Air 6,556 

Army strength of the National Guard had increased to 50.2 percent 

of the ultimate goal of 626,897; Air strength had increased to 67.8 

percent of its goal of 59,290. 

Budgetary provisions for fiscal year 1950 will permit the National 

Guard to increase to 399,500 officers and enlisted men. 

Organization of Units 

The number of federally recognized units increased steadily throughout the year. The outstanding accomplishment in this field was the 

complete organization and Federal recognition of all of the 514 Air 

units allotted the National Guard, 2 years ahead of the scheduled 

date. The first unit of the Air National Guard, the 120th Fighter 

Squadron of Denver, Colo., was organized in June 1946. Today the 

completely organized Air Guard includes— 

84 tactical squadrons. 

72 fighter squadrons. 

12 light bombardment squadrons. 

48 aircraft control and warning units. 

12 wing headquarters and supporting communications, engineer 

and service units. 

Since the organization of the first Army National Guard unit in 

August 1946, 4,597 Army units have been federally recognized. 

Twelve divisions have completed the organization of all component 

units. The reorganization of these divisions under the new T/O & E'a 

(see p. 29) was completed as follows:

4 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

The remaining 14 infantry divisions completed 95.7 percent of their 

organization; the 49th Armored Division was 83.6 percent complete. 

The 21 regimental combat teams were 95.2 percent organized. Alabama, Hawaii, North Dakota, Arizona, Wyoming, and the District 

of Columbia have completed the organization and Federal recognition 

of all National Guard units allotted. Army units organized and 

federally recognized this year totaled 344. A summary of units organized as of 30 June 1949 follows.

31 December 1948 4,416 62.3 

30 June 1949 4,597 68.4 

Officer Procurement 

The ratio of officers to enlisted men was 1 to 11 in Army units and 

1 to 5 in Air units. Although the over-all ratio was good, shortages 

in officers of the Medical, Dental, Chaplain, and Judge Advocate 

General Corps, shortages of second lieutenants and certain shortages 

in engineer aviation, signal construction, and aircraft control and 

warning units required special attention. 

The Wa r Department policies for the organization of the postwar 

National Guard stipulated that the procurement of officers and warrant 

officers, during the initial phase of organization (until 1 January 1951), 

should be confined to those wartime officers who had clearly demonstrated their qualifications by actual performance in the grade or 

position contemplated or, who, through satisfactory discharge of 

duties of equal and corresponding responsibility, had qualified for 

such appointment; provided that second lieutenants might be procured from among recent graduates of the Reserve Officers Training 

Corps or Officer Candidate School. Warrant officers and enlisted 

men of the first three grades with wartime service could be exempted 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 5 

from attendance at Officer Candidate School by examining boards 

when their wartime experience clearly satisfied the required standards. 

All Army officers of the National Guard, with the exception of a 

few specialists, have had World War II service; approximately 80 

percent served with combat units. Likewise, all Air National Guard 

officers, with the exception of a few doctors and chaplains, have had 

World War II experience; a great proportion of the officers and pilots 

in tactical units are combat veterans. The youth of the enlisted men 

is a notable contrast. Men in the 17- through 21-year-age group 

make up 69 percent of the enlisted strength of Army units and 56 

percent of the strength of Air units. The National Guard is new to 

most of the officers. In the Army National Guard alone, over 88 

percent of the officers have had no previous National Guard service. 

The total net gain in officer strength during the year was 7,115; 

5,012 Army and 2,103 Air. During this period 4,644 officers of the 

Army National Guard and 1,300 officers of the Air National Guard 

were discharged. 

Second Lieutenants 

Commissions as second lieutenants have been opened to all enlisted 

men of the Army National Guard. The requirements for a commission include— 

1. One year of total service. 

2. Completion of the courses in the Army Extension Course 10 

series. 

3. Approval of an examining board. 

Officers commissioned under these procedures may be federally 

recognized with a waiver which must be retired within 2 years if 

Federal recognition is to be retained. Waivers may be retired by the 

satisfactory completion of the associate basic course of instruction at 

an appropriate service school, or the satisfactory accomplishment of a 

practical test administered by the senior Army instructor, and the 

approval of a final examining board. 

Reserve officers, ROTC and OCS graduates and former first three 

graders with wartime service are still eligible for commissions as 

second lieutenants, but more emphasis now is being placed on commissioning officers from the ranks. Some of the States and some of 

the divisions have established schools to assist in training prospective 

second lieutenants. 

Measures to increase the number of nonrated second lieutenants in 

the Air National Guard have been under study. A proposal under 

consideration at the end of the year would permit men who have not 

passed their twenty-eighth birthday, who have a minimum of 6 

months active Federal service since 7 December 1941, and who have 
6 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

completed 2 years of study at an accredited college or university, or 

passed the Aviation Cadet officer candidate examination, to be eligible 

for appointment. 

The need for a program to insure a continuous flow of pilots into 

the Air National Guard is a pressing problem for which an adequate 

solution has not yet been found. There were 3,440 pilots in the Air 

Guard at the close of the fiscal year as opposed to a requirement for 

4,020. Within a relatively short time many of the present pilots 

either will be promoted or discharged for being over age in grade. 

The number of qualified Reserve officers eligible for these positions is 

not large and the number of nonrated National Guard officers who 

can qualify as pilots by attending the school for aviation cadets is 

small. 

Medical, Dental, Chaplain, and JA G Officers 

Shortages of National Guard medical and dental officers have continued in 1949. In addition there have been shortages of chaplains 

and officers of the Judge Advocate General Corps. Although the 

total number of National Guard officers in these branches has increased 

the Federal recognition of new units has increased the total number 

authorized. As of 30 June 1949, a total of 1,790 medical officers was 

authorized the National Guard—1,600 Army and 190 Air. The 

increase in actual strength since 1947 is shown below: 

^Medical officers 

SO June 1947 SO June 1948 SO June 1949 

Army 247 443 675 

Air 56 86 114 

The total number of doctors, dentists, chaplains, and officers of 

the Judge Advocate General Corps in any one unit is small, and promotion opportunities in a unit are limited. A number of officers of 

these branches accepted National Guard commissions one grade lower 

than that held while on active duty during World War II in order to 

meet table of organization requirements. The promotion of these 

officers to their wartime grade, provided that grade was not more 

than one grade above table of organization provisions, was authorized 

this year. In addition, the National Guard was authorized to accept 

officers of the Dental and Chaplain Corps one grade above T/O & E 

authorizations, provided the officers held the rank during World War 

II or attained it subsequently as members of the Organized Reserve 

Corps. This provision had been in effect for medical officers since 

fiscal year 1948. 

Maximum age in grade limitations for officers of the Medical, 

Dental, Chaplain, and Judge Advocate General Corps were raised 

this year in accordance with current policies of the Regular services.

Inactive National Guard 

Till [naotivi National Guard WM reconstituted on Id September

units who a n unahlo to participate in normal Guard activities. 
8 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

An Inactive National Guard was in existence for many years prior 

to World War II. Early plans for the postwar National Guard 

contemplated the establishment of a common Federal status for 

members of the National Guard and the Organized Reserve Corps 

which would facilitate transfers between the two organizations. 

These plans have not materialized. 

Officers and enlisted men who are unable to be active in a National 

Guard unit for an extended period may retain their National Guard 

status by transferring to the inactive organization. All members of 

the Inactive National Guard are attached to the State Headquarters 

and Headquarters Detachment for administration, and further attached to an appropriate active unit for potential future assignment. 

They are required to meet the same standards of physical and professional fitness and age in grade limitations as active guardsmen. 

Promotion, Air Officers 

The policies, standards, and procedures for the maintenance, 

proficiency, and promotion of Air officers below the grade of brigadier 

general, included in AFR 45-5, which have been determined to be 

applicable to the Air National Guard, were announced in National 

Guard Circular 6, 16 March 1949. Promotions are based on a 

schedule of points granted for the performance of certain duties; 

for example, 1 point for drill attendance, 1 point for each 3 hours of 

extension courses completed, etc., and points based on time in grade. 

No change was made in current maximum age in grade limitations and 

minimum periods of service in grade. An officer who reaches the 

maximum age in grade for tactical flying units may have the age 

requirement waived for 1 year, provided he is qualified for promotion 

but has not been considered because of the lack of a position vacancy, 

or provided less than 1 year in grade is needed to complete the minimum service in grade requirement. Time in grade requirements 

were relaxed to permit officers appointed in a lower grade to a position 

vacancy of a higher grade, on or before 16 March 1949, to be eligible 

for promotion 16 March 1950. However, officers in this category 

appointed after 16 March 1949 will not be eligible for promotion until 

the required time in grade has been completed. 

Unit Administration 

The study of unit administration in the National Guard by a board 

of National Guard general officers formed by the Chief, National 

Guard Bureau, was completed. All the recommendations of the board 

which affected Army units were acted upon. They included the discontinuance of the FBI fingerprint identification card when not in 

Federal service; the use of the Morning Report (WD AGO Form 1) 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 9 

for the recording of drill attendance; a simplified officer efficiency 

report; the use of a National Guard Service and Qualification record 

(NGB Form 24) in lieu of DA AGO Forms 20 and 24; and the preparation of master lists of publications, including training programs, 

catalogs, blank forms, etc., necessary to each type National Guard 

Army unit. 

Processing of Personnel Records 

The volume of enlistment records handled by the National Guard 

Bureau has been reduced greatly through a decentralization of 

responsibility to the States. The adjutants general have been authorized to act upon all enlistment applications except those requesting 

waivers for physical reasons. Their acceptance of this responsibility 

has resulted in a marked decrease in the number of applications 

requiring Bureau action. 

Of the 17,630 applicants for commissions as officers in the National 

Guard this year, the medical adviser reports that 305, or 1.2 percent, 

were found to be physically disqualified; of 100,367 enlisted National 

Guard applicants, 3,040, or 3 percent, were found to be physically 

disqualified. 

The enactment of Public Law 810, Eightieth Congress, which provided retirement pay for members of the civilian components, has 

increased the work load in the Bureau, since it is necessary to verify 

the service of former National Guard officers and the status of various 

units in which service is claimed. 

The Bureau has processed an average of 8,000 pieces of mail daily. 

The in-bound correspondence during 1 day included 899 letters, 88 

telegrams, 3,707 enlistment records, monthly rosters and other forms, 

and 399 miscellaneous pieces; while the out-bound correspondence 

included 1,883 letters, 88 telegrams, and 2,178 statements of Federal 

recognition, statements of service, requisitions, and other forms. 

Civilian Employees 

The National Defense Act permits the employment of caretakers 

and air technicians for supply and maintenance duties in Army and 

Air units. Administrative assistants were authorized this year to 

free commanding officers of the heavy administrative load and permit 

them to concentrate their efforts on preparing their units for their 

tactical missions. 

Men employed as caretakers, air technicians, and administrative 

assistants for National Guard units must be members of the National 

Guard. The administrative assistants must be assigned table of 

organization positions in units comparable to those the}1- hold as 

administrative assistants, to preclude any disruption of duties in the 
10 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

event of mobilization. The civilian personnel authorized are employed by the various States and paid from funds allotted by the 

National Guard Bureau. 

As of 30 June 1949, 4,212 caretakers, 2,702 motor pool maintenance 

personnel, 43 range keepers, and 4,652 administrative assistants were 

employed for Army units; 1,673 accounting clerks were employed in 

offices of United States Property and Disbursing Officers; and a total 

of 5,855 technicians were employed for Air units. Fighter and bomber 

squadrons with 61 and 71 employees, respectively, are the major air 

units authorized technician personnel. A typical fighter squadron is 

authorized 3 administrative specialists, 5 operations specialists, 8 

supply specialists, and 45 engineering specialists. 

A study of the personnel required to carry out effectively the 

responsibilities of the office of the United States Property and Disbursing Officer in each State resulted in 247 additional employees 

being authorized for fiscal year 1950. 

INFORMATION PROGRAM 

During fiscal year 1949 the National Guard Bureau continued an 

information program designed to increase public understanding of its 

organization and traditional mission in peace and war, the part it 

plays in the community, the opportunities it offers young men, and its 

service in guarding the peace. 

Information was disseminated to every segment of the American 

public with great vigor and aided the guard to meet the increased 

strength schedules authorized by Congress, the Department of the 

Army and the Department of the Air Force. 

The program used the three tools of effective public relations— 

advertising, publicity, and personal contact. On the national level, 

responsibility for carrying out the program rested with the Chief, 

National Guard Bureau, and execution was assigned the Information 

Office. The Information Office had been formed to tell the Nation 

the National Guard's story and provide the background for information programs at State and unit level, for which the adjutants general 

and unit commanders are responsible. 

Each of the three elements of the program was effectively blended, 

designed to effect maximum savings in time, and provide professional 

tools to local commanders and their public information officers, or 

PIO's, who for the most part are nonprofessionals and, in all cases, 

only part-time information personnel. 

Personal contact, one of the most effective elements of the information program, was provided by a continuous series of special events, 

employing most media available within the communities. Special 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 11 

events activities of the National Guard gave the public a chance to 

view guardsmen in training and in social affairs. 

Another phase of the personal contact plan was to encourage unit 

commanders to organize their commands into sales teams. Representatives of the National Guard Bureau conducted many conferences 

throughout the Nation, indoctrinating the sales teams, giving special 

aid in areas where recruiting lagged. Recruiting conferences were 

held in each of the Air National Guard wing headquarters. Late in 

the fiscal year recruiting advisors were sent to a selected list of newly 

organized units to assist in recruiting efforts. In most cases, this 

special effort brought the units up to the required strength. 

The National Guard military ball, a personal contact program 

sponsored by the National Guard Bureau, was held in 39 cities throughout the States. The programs, featuring name dance bands, were 

broadcast on a national radio network, reaching a maximum audience. 

Several of the military balls attracted an attendance of more than 

10,000. 

During the year advertising was conducted on a national as well as 

local scale. Advertising was placed in leading popular magazines 

and in local newspapers. Spot announcements and Army and Air 

Force programs were made available to radio stations. Direct mail 

to leading business and industrial firms resulted in their participation 

in a widespread collateral advertising campaign. All of this was augmented by posters, hand-outs, and window displays. 

Each part of the program brought favorable results, giving the 

National Guard millions of dollars of free publicity. The growing 

support of the National Guard by the general public is evidenced in 

the cooperation of approximately 650 business firms in the collateral 

advertising campaign initiated by the National Guard Bureau. 

More than 100 firms carried the National Guard message on national 

network radio programs; others carried stories and editorials with 

pictures in house publications, displayed posters, and arranged 

window displays. The American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations expressed their cooperation and 

support in letters to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. 

During the year the National Guard Bureau prepared a monthly 

PIO News-letter which was distributed to National Guard public 

information officers. It served as a clearing house for public relations and publicity ideas, as well as a supplement to official Bureau 

publications with briefs of regulations and activities of current 

interest. 

The results of recruiting efforts during the fiscal year were most 

favorable. Many badly needed specialists were added to the strength 

of the guard; liaison pilots increased from 231 to 613; chaplains from 

886343— 50 2 
12 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

148 to 271; and medical officers from 529 to 789; while in one 6-

month period alone, 9,768 National Guard lieutenants were procured. 

The over-all strength of the guard increased from 317,857, 1 July 

1948, to 356,473 on 30 June 1949. 

The National Guard has found formidable objectives within easy 

grasp. Strength quotas were met and, according to veteran guardsmen, the public understanding and support enjoyed by the National 

Guard at the close of fiscal year 1949 is greater than ever before in 

its history. 

BUDGET AND FISCAL 

To provide pay, training, construction, and equipment for the 

expanded National Guard during fiscal year 1949, Congress appropriated $275,000,000, $196,523,975 for the Army National Guard and 

$78,476,025 for the Air National Guard. The appropriation included 

increases over fiscal year 1948 appropriations for a number of projects; 

for example, funds for armory drill pay were increased from approximately $25,000,000 to $41,000,000; funds for field training pay were 

increased from approximately $6,000,000 to $19,000,000; and funds 

for the modification, repair, and maintenance of equipment were 

increased from approximately $8,000,000 to $19,000,000. The appropriation included a total of $31,452,000 for construction purposes, the 

use of $21,500,000 of which was not approved by the Bureau of the 

Budget until November 1948. For a table of expenditures, see 

appendix J. 

Procedures for income-tax deductions from armory drill and field 

training payrolls were instituted in January when the income-tax 

exemption for military personnel was terminated. 

The National Guard Bureau authorized the administrative assistant 

to the United States Property and Disbursing Officer, when properly 

bonded, to certify vouchers during emergency periods up to 30 days. 

The limitations placed by Congress on the use of funds for Federal 

civilian employees made it necessary to obtain separate allocations 

from the Army Comptroller for employees of the armies and technical 

services required for work on National Guard projects. 

The payment of per diem from National Guard funds to Regular 

Army personnel on duty at summer camps was restricted by the 

Bureau of the Budget. 

LEGISLATIVE AND LEGAL 

Of major interest to every guardsman was the enactment of Public 

Law 108, Eighty-first Congress, which provides benefits for members 

of the Reserve components who suffer disability or death from injuries 

incurred while engaged in active duty training for periods of less than 

30 days, or while engaged in inactive duty training. 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 13 

The effect of Public Law 108 is to extend to National Guardsmen, 

killed or injured while performing service under competent orders for 

short periods of time, with or without pay, the same benefits that 

accrue to persons serving on active Federal duty for periods in excess 

of 30 days. It also is intended to include compensation and death 

benefits and the payment of personnel while hospitalized. 

Injuries received while engaged in purely State duty are excluded 

from the provisions of this act. Benefits in cases of disability or death 

resulting from illness, as opposed to those resulting from injury, are 

not applicable when the duty involved is less than 30 days. 

In the computation of longevity pay, Public Law 681, Eightieth 

Congress, authorizes credit for service prior to reaching 18 years of 

age. It applies to members of the Army and Reserve components, 

including the National Guard. 

Public Law 829, Eightieth Congress, amended section 13 (a) of the 

Surplus Property Act of 1944, permitting the National Guard of the 

States to receive certain surplus property. 

As the fiscal year ended, 30 June 1949, several measures of consequence to the National Guard awaited final congressional action. 

Among them was the appropriation act for fiscal year 1950. The act 

under consideration provides an appropriation of $216,000,000 for the 

Army National Guard and $115,000,000 for the Air National Guard. 

The pending armory construction bill also is of immediate concern. 

Legislation proposed would grant authority for construction, rehabilitation, conversion, and maintenance of buildings, structures, utilities, 

and other facilities, for the National Guard, Organized Reserve Corps, 

and other Reserve components of the Army of the United States. 

The Career Compensation Act of 1949, awaiting action, would provide increased pay, allowances, and physical disability retirement for 

members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, 

Coast and Geodetic Survey, Public Health Service, the Reserve Components thereof, the National Guard and the Air National Guard. 

A proposed amendment to the Armed Forces Leave Act of 1946 

would permit personnel of the National Guard to accumulate leave 

credit for training undertaken under the provisions of sections 94, 

97, and 99 of the National Defense Act. 

It is anticipated that the following measures of importance to the 

well-being of the National Guard will be presented to the Eighty-first 

Congress, during the second session: 

An act to provide that personnel of the National Guard of the 

United States, and Organized Reserve Corps will have a common 

Federal appointment or enlistment as Reserves of the Army of the 

United States and to equalize disability benefits applicable to such 

personnel. 
14 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

An act to extend the franking privilege to permit transmission 

through the United States mail, free of postage, all official mail matter 

of the National Guard of the United States in either a State or Federal 

status, by amending 39 USC, chapter 8, section 321. 

An act to provide active duty status for United States Property and 

Disbursing Officers by amending section 67, National Defense Act. 

An act to authorize up to 40 percent of the officers on active duty 

in the National Guard Bureau to hold commissions in the National 

Guard of the United States by amending section 81, National Defense 

Act. 

An act to abolish the distinctive uniform requirements for the 

National Guard by amending section 125, National Defense Act. 

An act to provide officers and warrant officers of the Reserve components of the Army and Air Force an allowance for uniforms. 

An act to clarify the active duty status of certain officers of the 

Army of the United States and the Air Force of the United States and 

to include National Guard personnel who entered Service hospitals 

while in a terminal leave status and were not paid. 

The Governors of all the States and Territories except Maryland, 

South Carolina, Georgia, and Puerto Rico issued proclamations 

which enabled the National Guard to accept, for enlistment, men 

otherwise subject to induction into the Armed Forces of the United 

States. The proclamations, to the effect that the National Guard of 

the respective State or Territory was understrength, were issued 

under the provisions of section 6 (c) (2) (A), Public Law 759, Eightieth 

Congress (Selective Service Act of 1948). 

TRAINING, ARMY 

The complete organization of all units in the Air National Guard 

and the organization of the majority of Army units has permitted a 

shift in emphasis from organization to training. 

Under the National Defense Act, the training of the National 

Guard citizen-soldier involves, primarily, weekly assemblies for drill 

and instruction. Forty-eight 2-hour training assemblies are required 

annually. Guardsmen also are required to participate in field 

encampments or maneuvers 15 days each year. 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 15 

An outstanding accomplishment this year has been the adoption of 

new training programs especially designed to meet National Guard 

needs. Instruction in every phase of National Guard service has 

been provided in carefully planned and conducted weekly assemblies, 

in field training, and in schools. Approximately 275,000 guardsmen 

participated in the field training program—the second summer 

encampment conducted since World War II—and more guardsmen 

than ever before have attended service schools. 

Army 3-Year Training Plan 

The 3-year training plan, approved at the end of the last fiscal year, 

was implemented throughout Army units in the fall of 1948. Developed by a group of experienced National Guard officers, working 

together with officers of the National Guard Bureau and Army Field 

Forces, the plan is a distinctive achievement and provides a realistic 

and practical approach to the problem of training the citizen-soldier. 

The compelling missions assigned the National Guard require the 

most effective utilization of all training time. Under the new program, guardsmen progress through training in basic military subjects 

and in a military specialty in a 3-year period, the normal enlistment 

period. Only essential subjects necessary for the accomplishment of 

initial or emergency combat missions are included in the program. 

By concentrating on a minimum number of subjects, a higher level 

of proficiency can be attained than ever before. The program takes 

into consideration the unique composition of National Guard units 

whose membership simultaneously includes veterans, men in various 

stages of training, and new recruits. Training is conducted on both 

a unit and individual basis with the first hour of the weekly 2-hour 

armory period devoted to general training for the entire group. The 

second hour is utilized for individual training with men of the unit 

divided into three groups—basic, intermediate, and advanced. The 

training of unit specialists is emphasized; trained noncommissioned 

officers will relieve unit commanders of administrative burdens and 

permit them to devote more time to training their units for their 

combat mission. The plan assures uniform and standardized progress 

throughout the guard; like units receive like training, and an individual's military development is planned and regulated. An outline 

plan of the basic training program for individual units follows.

18 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

Career Guidance 

Complementing the advantages of training under the 3-year plan, 

an adapted form of the Army Career Guidance program has been 

introduced in the Army National Guard. To be initiated at the conclusion of the 1949 field training period, the plan offers the part-time 

soldier opportunities for advancement in the National Guard, limited 

only by ability and initiative. It is designed to emphasize the 

authority and increase the prestige of the noncommissioned officer by 

establishing proficiency in training qualifications as the basis for 

promotion. 

Individual Training Record 

Training in the enlisted grades will be further regularized and 

controled by the use of the individual training record introduced 

during this year. The training record, the first of its kind ever to be 

developed and adopted by an Army component, is designed to 

reflect the progress of each individual through the prescribed phases 

of the 3-year training plan. 

Add itional Training 

To permit maximum utilization of the summer field training period 

for tactical training in preparation for combat, an additional weekend training period was authorized Army units this year. The weekend period enables National Guard units to complete small arms 

firing at firing ranges adjacent to home stations. The time formerly 

required to complete preliminary, record, and familiarization firing 

during the field training period now can be used for tactical exercises. 

Units are authorized to take the equivalent of 1 week-end training 

period of 2 days. In most units this is spread over 4 week-ends with 

part of the unit participating each period. Guardsmen receive 2 full 

days additional pay for the extra training. All but two of the States 

and Territories completed the extra training in whole or in part by 

30 June. It is expected that full advantage will be taken of this 

additional training period before the end of calendar year 1949. 

Regular Army Instructors 

The number of Regular Army officers on duty with the National 

Guard as instructors increased during the year but shortages, particularly in the more important positions, continue to be a problem 

as the guard strives to attain a high state of training. The progress of 

National Guard organization in 1948 and 1949 intensified the need 

for the advice and assistance of the Regular Army instructor. 

Basic law and approved Department of the Army policies prescribe 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 19 

that "The commanding generals of the appropriate major forces, 

with the concurrence of the State, will select commissioned and enlisted instructors [for duty with the guard] from qualified Regular 

Army officers and enlisted men within their commands * * *. 

The number of instructors on duty with the National Guard will be 

sufficient to efficiently instruct in the latest approved, technical and 

tactical doctrines and correct administrative procedure." 

The interim policy of assigning non-Regular officers as "Advisors," 

in lieu of Regular officers, has relieved the situation to some degree, 

but the total still is considerably short of the actual need. The 

substitution of non-Regular advisors has not been entirely acceptable 

to the States. 

Extensive studies conducted to determine the possibility of reducing the over-all instructor requirement by consolidating instructor 

positions have resulted in a temporary reduction to 1,174 for fiscal 

year 1950. The ultimate requirement for Army officer instructors is 

1,350. 

Instructors and advisors on duty with the National Guard, 30 

June 1948, numbered 641; on 30 June 1949, a total of 983 were assigned, or 83 percent of the minimum required for fiscal year 1950, 

and 72 percent of the ultimate requirement. In view of the need, the 

net increase of 342 during the year is not considered satisfactory. 

The initial officers assigned to duty with the National Guard in 1946 

completed their 3-year tours this year, necessitating replacements. 

Officers relieved proir to completion of the normal 3-year tour numbered 73; 16 were relieved to attend school; 15 for oversea service; 

3 for compassionate reasons; 2 (advisors) for competitive tour; 2 

(advisors) were separated from the service; 9 were retired; and 26 

were relieved for various other reasons. 

Officers were assigned in categories as follows, 30 June 1949: 

Regular Army instructors 593 

Non-Regular advisors 302 

Ordnance technical advisors 25 

Light aviation advisors 63 

983 

Warrant officers assigned for duty with the National Guard totaled 

47; 52 are allotted. Enlisted men assigned, totaled 1,461 or 77 percent of the 1,745 allotted. 

Training Aids 

There has been a shortage of training aids needed in the National 

Guard training program. Budgetary limits heretofore have restricted 

procurement. However, provisions for training aids have been 
2 0 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

included as a separate project in budget preparations for fiscal year 

1950. The program planned is comprehensive, covering all essential 

items. It is contemplated that procurement and distribution will be 

initiated as soon as funds are made available. Adequate training aids 

will have a far-reaching and beneficial effect on the training program. 

Army Schools 

National Guard training programs emphasize the importance of 

formal schools, as modern methods of warfare require broader, more 

advanced, and more technical training. It is recognized that the 

ultimate effectiveness of any training revolves around the caliber of 

unit officers and noncommissioned officers. An educational program 

unparalleled in the history of the National Guard is available to 

officers and men who now are eligible to attend all schools operated 

by the Regular establishment. Guardsmen themselves are more 

school-conscious than ever before. A total of 5,939 selected officers 

and enlisted men attended Army Service Schools during the year, 

in courses ranging from high-level staff planning to elements of motor 

mechanics. Weekly school authorizations averaged 225 officers and 

men. In 1 week during March, all records were broken as 259 officers 

and 248 enlisted men were authorized to attend service schools. 

Among the schools are the five principal Army Field Forces schools— 

Command and General Staff School, Ground General School, Infantry 

School, Armored School, and Artillery School. Students also attended the Armed Forces Information School, Adjutant General 

School, Army Finance School, Engineer School, and Signal Corps 

School. About 200 courses in Army Service Schools, ranging in 

length from 6 to 30 weeks, are available to guardsmen. 

Augmenting the Army Service School program, schools conducted 

by the numbered armies and unit schools conducted by the States 

provided technical instruction for an additional 5,500 guardsmen. 

By enrollment in Army extension courses, 29,309 National Guard 

students were improving their military education. 

Armory Inspections 

Annual armory inspections of Army units are conducted by officers 

of the Regular Army. The inspections cover all phases of administration, supply, and training. There has been a gratifying increase 

in the percentage of units receiving satisfactory ratings as shown 

below: 

Fiscal year 1947 Fiscal year 191,8 Fiscal year 1949 

Satisfactory 465 88% 2,604 91% 4,229 96.1% 

Unsatisfactory 67 12% 231 9% 170 3.9% 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 21 

Studies made of the ability of the Army units of the National 

Guard to discharge their mission in case of national emergency indicate that they are well prepared to satisfactorily fulfill any reasonable 

mobilization requirements consistent with the appropriations, equipment, and length of time prior to mobilization that has been available. 

TRAINING, AIR 

The rapid progress in the organization of the Air National Guard 

was reflected in training accomplishments. Units which had been 

organized for more than 2 years were completing unit training and 

entering phases of group and wing training. 

Improvements in the training program for the Air National Guard 

were developed during the year. The changes provide more-effective 

job training for airmen, and also are designed to provide standardized 

training for each tj7pe unit throughout the Air Guard. The training 

programs are to be supplemented by detailed lesson plans being procured from USAF service and technical schools. The completion of 

this program will greatly assist unit commanders of the Air National 

Guard. 

Both flying and ground training have progressed satisfactorily at 

weekly training assemblies. 

Training facilities have not been adequate. This has been true of 

bomb and gunnery ranges. Some units have had to travel such 

distances to reach ranges that gunnery missions required a full day. 

In addition, training now is presenting problems in aerial traffic since 

the majority of the home stations of air squadrons are busy municipal 

airports. Many municipal airports have regulations which prohibit 

the ground operation of aircraft armed with machine guns or high 

explosives. Few, if any, of these bases can accommodate an entire 

wing for training purposes without seriously disrupting the normal 

functions of an airport. Efforts to solve these problems will be continued during the coming fiscal year. The availability of Air Force 

stations now on a caretaker or stand-by basis is being investigated. 

If such bases, suitable for week-end maneuvers and summer field 

training, can be secured at reasonable cost, it is expected that full 

use of them will be made in future training periods. 

Operational Control Agreement 

State boundaries have of necessity been crossed in the operation of 

the 12 wings and the 27 groups of the Air National Guard. The 

informal cooperation of the States in effecting control of inter-State 

Air National Guard operations culminated in the adoption of a formal 

agreement in December 1948. The agreement provides that— 

1. The Chief of Staff, USAF, through his designated commanders, 
22 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

exercises training supervision over Air National Guard units by means 

of normal military channels. 

2. All Air National Guard unit commanders exercise supervision 

over subordinate units and personnel within their respective units in 

all matters pertaining to training for their Federal mission, whether or 

not subordinate units and personnel are from the State in which the 

commanding officer is commissioned. 

3. Air National Guard wing, group, and squadron commanders 

exercise supervision over training of subordinate assigned and/or 

attached units and personnel within States other than that of their 

own, when wing, group, or other joint training exercises or maneuvers 

are involved. 

4. When Air National Guard units and personnel engage in joint 

training exercises, in conjunction with units and personnel of the 

USAF and/or USAF Reserves, the Air National Guard units and 

personnel involved will be under the command jurisdiction of the 

USAF, Air National Guard, or USAF Reserve officers who normally 

would exercise command by virtue of office, rank, and assignment 

within a unified military organization. 

5. All Air National Guard commanders are required to conduct 

such training inspections of subordinate units as are necessary to 

determine their qualifications and readiness for their Federal mission, 

whether such subordinate units are located in the State in which the 

officer responsible for the tactical inspection holds his commission or 

in another State. 

Cross-Counfry Training Flights 

Approximately 1,480 cross-country navigational training flights 

were authorized and accomplished by pilots of the Air National Guard 

in F-51, F-47, B-26, C-47, and F-80 type aircraft this year. To 

reduce the work load in the National Guard Bureau, unit commanders 

have been given authority to authorize certain cross-country flights. 

Squadron commanders may authorize flights up to 500 miles; group 

commanders may authorize flights from 500 to 1,000 miles; and wing 

commanders may authorize flights of two or more aircraft over 1,000 

miles. Cross-country navigational training flights by individuals 

utilizing one aircraft still require Bureau authorization. All flights 

authorized by wing commanders are reported quarterly to the National 

Guard Bureau. 

Supplemental Training 

A number of wing exercises, as well as certain exercises with units 

of the Regular services, were conducted during the year. These 

exercises provided maximum training for personnel of wing and group 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 23 

staffs, as well as the tactical units actively participating; they presented problems in supply, operations, communications, and deployment of forces that strained the facilities and capabilities of all the 

units. The successful completion of the exercises is testimony to the 

adequacy of training and effective utilization of personnel. 

Participation in the inauguration ceremonies for President Truman 

was one of the largest special Air National Guard activities undertaken 

this year. Twenty-eight States and the District of Columbia were 

solicited for aircraft and pilots. Staging areas were established at 

airfields within proper flying distance of Washington, D. C. Maintenance and fueling facilities were provided; mess and housing facilities for personnel were arranged. A project officer for each staging 

area was appointed to supervise and coordinate the mission from his 

base. The operations order was prepared by the National Guard 

Bureau, and field visits were made to strategic locations in order to 

brief participating personnel. The Air National Guard sent approximately 400 aircraft into the Washington area on 20 January as its 

part in the inauguration ceremonies. The review, conducted together 

with squadrons of the Air Force, Navy, and Marines, was executed 

as scheduled, giving ample proof of the high state of training of participating National Guard units. 

Other special exercises conducted this year included the participation of the 52d Wing and the 67th Wing in the Idlewild Air Review 

at New York City, 31 July 1948. The 55th Wing made a simulated 

attack on Boiling Air Force Base, Washington, D. C , in November. 

An air-staff exercise, Defender, and a wing-training exercise, Rebound, 

were executed by the 67th Wing in December and March, respectively. 

The first postwar mass formation flight of an entire squadron was 

conducted by the 171st Fighter Squadron the last 5 days of December 

1948. During this exercise the squadron covered a distance of approximately 4,500 miles. The 52d Wing executed Operation Dawn, 

an air-staff exercise, in March. The 54th Wing participated in Operation Tarheel in May 1948, a combined training exercise conducted 

by the Regular Army and Air Force. 

Additional training for nonflying personnel was provided by special 

2- and 4-day schools conducted at group and wing level. Prior to 

summer field training 4-day schools were held for the indoctrination 

of administrative, medical, supply, communications, and engineering 

personnel. Two-day schools in administrative procedures, supply 

procedures, and command and staff functions also were held. 

Tow-Target Missions 

The Chief of the National Guard Bureau offered the services of the 

Air National Guard to Army Field Forces for tow-target work when 
2 4 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

it became apparent that USAF could not provide this service during 

the summer of 1949. The Operations Branch of the National Guard 

Bureau's Air Force Division organized the work, briefed the units 

concerned, and coordinated the over-all plan. 

Missions have been assigned to units with tow-target equipment 

and crews available outside the summer field training period, in 

accordance with the tow-target hours required by Army Field Forces. 

Complete schedules, outlining the program in detail, have been furnished agencies concerned. The project is well-organized but will 

require supervision and coordination throughout the summer months. 

MAR S Program 

The Military Amateur Radio System program was opened to 

members of the National Guard this year. The program provides 

an additional training medium to communications personnel, Army 

as well as Air; it will assist in building a reservoir of qualified radio 

operators and maintenance men and serve as an incentive to vitally 

needed communications technicians to join the National Guard. 

The National Guard MARS program is monitored by the National 

Guard Bureau through the State adjutants general. National Guard 

Army and Air State MARS directors are appointed to coordinate 

activities, and a director is appointed to supervise each National 

Guard MARS station. Applications for membership are processed 

through the State adjutants general and the National Guard Bureau 

to the respective Chiefs of the Army and Air Force MARS programs. 

Pilot Training 

A plan for the training of pilots of the National Guard at Air Force 

flying schools was under study by the National Guard Bureau and 

the Air Force during the year. Various problems concerning eligibility, selection, and service with the Air Force following pilot training 

had not been solved at year end. 

There are no provisions at present for the flying school attendance 

of enlisted men of the National Guard. However, enlisted men are 

eligible, and have a priority status for training under the USAF 

aviation cadet program. Students who successfully complete the 

course for aviation cadets, are required to serve for 3 years on extended 

active duty with the USAF. 

A ir Guard Instructors 

The rapid growth of Air National Guard units has necessitated 

the assignment of qualified instructors and advisors with a minimum 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 25 

of delay. The status of instructors on duty with the Air Guard, 

30 June 1949, is as follows: 

Required Assigned 

Officers 199 168 

Enlisted men 422 417 

Because of the shortage of qualified personnel who volunteered for 

duty with the Air National Guard, instructors now are being assigned 

on a nonvolunteer basis. Instructor shortages have been most 

acute in communications squadrons, aircraft control and warning 

units, and engineer aviation squadrons. The Air Force opened a 

course in aircraft control warning tactics in March 1949 for the primary 

purpose of training officer instructors for the Air National Guard. 

By 30 June there was an instructor on duty with each National 

Guard aircraft control and warning unit. It is expected that the 

assignment of all instructors required by the Air National Guard will 

be accomplished during fiscal year 1950. 

Training Aids 

Up-to-date training aids, in numbers sufficient to supply the 

minimum requirements of all Air units, have not been available this 

year. New aids now are being manufactured and will be distributed 

in accordance with a table of allowances being developed. The table 

of allowances will establish a standard allowance of those materials 

required by each type Air unit for the most effective training, 

Air Schools 

Instruction provided by United States Air Force schools is an 

important part of the training available to men of the Air National 

Guard. Recognition of the value of school instruction is evidenced 

by the fact that 1,298 officers and 1,060 enlisted men—a total of 

2,358 men of the Air National Guard—attended schools during the 

fiscal year. There was an increase of 1,674 students or 243 percent 

over the previous year. The majority of the students came from 

units which had been organized for some time; total school attendance 

amounted to approximately 5 percent of all personnel. 

The National Guard Bureau not only encouraged the extensive use 

of all available courses, but insisted on the careful screening of the 

qualifications of applicants and emphasized the selection of courses 

which would provide training in skills needed. The number of 

students, courses taken, and academic achievements this year 

indicate good progress is being made. 

Advance quotas for popular courses, based on estimated annual 

requirements are being requested for fiscal year 1950 in order to reduce 
26 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

time lags. To insure the utmost return for money spent, emphasis will 

be continued on the selection of courses which are appropriate to the 

needs of the National Guard, the proper qualification of applicants, 

and the correct utilization by units of all school-trained men. 

To provide advanced training for radar specialists for aircraft 

control and warning units, USAF has agreed to establish a comprehensive radar course of approximately 90 days during the coming 

year. This course will be directed toward Air technicians with sufficient technical background to take advanced training with a minimum 

review of basic radar theory. It is planned that the course will 

cover study of four modern USAF radar sets and train Air technicians 

who will return to their units qualified to instruct others.

Operational Efficiency Reports 

A system of monthly efficiency reports has been established for Air 

units of the National Guard. Patterned after those used by Headquarters, USAF for Regular Air Force units, they are designed to 

reflect the over-all efficiency of Air National Guard flying and nonflying units. The reports, which include the current status of training, equipment, and personnel, furnish agencies concerned with a basis 

for planning, and the initiation of measures which will enable the 

Air Guard to reach and maintain the highest level of efficiency. 

NATIONAL GUARD FIELD TRAINING 

Approximately 275,000 guardsmen in Army and Air units participated in field training encampments during the summer of 1948, as 

compared with approximately 85,000 the previous year. It was the 

second field training period since the organization of the postwar 

National Guard, but the first encampment for many recently organized units. 

Field training provides an opportunity to concentrate on unit training. Units function as complete organizations in conjunction with 

other units for combined and coordinated missions. Commands and 

staffs participate in exercises which are impracticable during armory 

drill training. Where practicable this year all units of a division 

trained at the same site, and nondivisional units trained at a division 

site. Six of the fighter wings accomplished their summer field training 

on a wing basis. Next year the Air Guard anticipates conducting all 

Air Guard training at wing level. Arrangements for adequate facilities for wing training, now short in some areas, will have to be made. 

The units participating in field training during fiscal year 1949 had 

benefited from 6 months to 2 years of training. They had begun to 

fill out, some having 100 percent of their authorized strength; administrative personnel were more experienced. Precamp schools for mess 

personnel were again held with messes showing considerable improvement. Few shortages in equipment or supplies required for training 

were reported. Adequate gunnery ranges for air-to-air, air-toground, bombing, and small-arms firing within operating range of 

field training sites were a problem to the Air Guard in some areas. 

Travel to and from camps and bases was conducted as a troop movement providing training in all phases of mass motor, rail, and air 

transport. 

Many employers gave their guardsmen-employees training leave 

with pay, without loss of vacation time, or made other concessions. 

The number of employers who recognize the value to national security 

886343—50 3 
28 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

of a prepared National Guard and are willing to grant training leave 

privileges is progressively increasing. 

Field training inspections are conducted by officers of the Regular 

Army and Air Force. The results of field training inspections made 

during the summer of 1948 (fiscal year 1949) are tabulated below.

TROPHIES AND AWARDS 

A comprehensive program of awards and trophies has been established to promote competition, the maintenance of high training 

standards, and morale. 

The Eisenhower trophy is awarded annually to the Army unit 

judged to be the most outstanding company-size unit in each State. 

It was presented to winning units for the first time this year at appropriate ceremonies during the field training period. Factors considered 

in selection include the proficiency demonstrated during armory drill 

and field training periods, average strength, and weapons qualifications. 

The small-arms competitive matches, suspended during the war, 

were reestablished this year. The program includes contests with 

the 22-caliber rifle, the carbine, and pistol. Firing is conducted outside the armory drill period. The matches foster wholesome competition between individuals and units and promote increased proficiency in the use of individual weapons. For a list of matches, see 

appendix E. 

The Spaatz trophy, to be awarded each calendar year to the outstanding squadron in each of the 12 wings, will be presented for the 

first time next year. Winning units will be selected on the basis of 

general efficiency including flying proficiency, safety records, personnel, maintenance standards, and esprit de corps. 

The eligibility of Air National Guardsmen for the following Air 

awards has been established: 

Mackay Army Trophy. Awarded to the officer making the most 

meritorious flight each year.

group having the pilot with the highest aggregate score in 

fighter gunnery at Air Force Fighter Gunnery School. 

Edward S. Evans Glider Trophy. Awarded for the greatest 

contribution by an individual to glider development or for 

the most meritorious glider flight. 

A flying safety award is being designed for presentation each year 

to the fighter squadron and light bombardment squadron having the 

outstanding safety record. 

ORGANIZATION, ARMY 

A major accomplishment during the fiscal year was the reorganization of Army units of the National Guard under new tables of organization and equipment. The new tables are based on the combat lessons 

of World War JI. Paralleling the postwar reorganization of the 

Regular Army, the changes provide for increased firepower, mobility 

and flexibility, with appropriate increased grades for positions of 

responsibility. 

Experienced National Guard officers from the States and Territories prepared the new T/O & E's under the supervision of the 

National Guard Bureau. Approved by the Department of the 

Army, the changes increased the total number of units in division* 

and reduced the number of antiaircraft artillery units and other nondivisional units. A heavy tank battalion and an antiaircraft artillery 

automatic weapons battalion were added to both infantry and armored 

divisions and the total authorized strength of the divisions was 

increased. 

All units of the 25 infantry divisions, 21 regimental combat teams, 

and all but 2 units of the armored divisions were reorganized during 

the year. The reorganizations involved over 100 changes in allotment to the States and Territories, over 600 changes in unit names or 

numbers, as well as changes in personnel and equipment. The 

remaining reorganizations will be completed during the first part of 

fiscal year 1950. 

Armored Cavalry Regiments 

In addition to the changes affecting the troop basis made by the 

reorganization under the new T/O & E's, unorganized coast artillery 

units were dropped from the troop basis and five armored cavalry 

regiments (light) were added. 
3 0 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

Mobil ization Plan 

The 18-25 division program adopted by the Department of the 

Army during fiscal year 1948 has not been altered materially. No 

additional National Guard divisions have been designated for inclusion in the program this year. 

Plans for Emergency State Security Force 

Anticipating a demand for the organization of military units within 

the States, should the National Guard ever be called into Federal 

service again, a committee of National Guard officers organized by 

the Chief, National Guard Bureau, drew up plans covering the 

organization, composition, standards of training, and funds for State 

troops for internal security. The plans were submitted to the adjutants general of all the States. The original plans and the comments 

and recommendations made by the States were reviewed by a second 

committee. The resulting final plan has been forwarded to the Chief 

of Staff with the recommendation that it be approved. 

ORGANIZATION, AIR 

The issue of jet-type aircraft to fighter squadrons necessitated a 

modification of T/O & E 1-12R. Another organization change resulted 

in all bands of the Air National Guard being reorganized under T/O &E 

1-2030, the table under which Air Force bands are organized. This 

reorganization authorizes an increase of 6 enlisted men in each band, 

and an increase in the over-all Air Guard troop basis of 72 men. 

Increase in Combat Crews 

Combat crews of the Air National Guard were authorized to be 

increased by 50 percent this year. Fighter squadrons of the Air 

National Guard now are authorized 12 additional pilots, and light 

bombardment squadrons are authorized an additional 8 pilots and 16 

enlisted men. The authorizations augment the troop basis of the Air 

Air National Guard by 960 officers and 192 enlisted men. 

Realinement of Units in the Tenth Air Force Area 

Early preparations for the summer field training of the 66th, 71st, 

and 86th Wings located in the Tenth Air Force area of the Midwest, 

revealed that the composition of those wings would not permit all 

units of a wing to attend field training at the same time. The difficulty was due primarily to the spread in latitude and elevation within 

the area which caused variations in the harvest seasons. Since many 

of the members of the units were engaged in agricultural occupations, 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 31 

field training periods held during harvest were impractical. A realinement of units within the areas, agreed upon by all the agencies concerned, will facilitate wing training. 

State Air Staff and Base Wing Plans 

Plans for the establishment of an Air section in State Headquarters 

and Headquarters Detachment and the establishment of base wings 

were under study at the end of the fiscal year. 

LOGISTICS 

Army Facilities and Construction 

Provisions for adequate armories, training camps, rifle ranges, warehouses, and other facilities required by a National Guard twice its 

prewar size have continued to challenge the States and the National 

Guard Bureau. Federal aid for armory construction has not been 

available, due to the lack of enabling legislation. However, a nonarmory construction program involving the expenditure of $21,500,000 

was undertaken' this year. Long-range plans for providing nonarmory facilities have been formulated in coordination with the States; 

a firm funding policy for the operation of field training sites has been 

developed; and the States were given financial assistance in the operation and maintenance of nonarmory facilities. 

New Construction 

The fiscal year 1949 construction program included contracts for 

the following: 

290 motor vehicle storage buildings. 

1 ordnance maintenance shop. 

5 warehouses. 

6 liaison plane hangars. 

13 rifle ranges. 

Before World War II facilities for the National Guard were a State 

responsibility. Federal assistance in providing adequate facilities 

for an expanded postwar National Guard has resulted, 1 July 1946-30 

June 1949, in the following storage facilities and maintenance shops: 

597 motor vehicle storage buildings. 

22 warehouses. 

12 liaison plane hangars 

10 field maintenance shops. 

The total estimated value of the warehouses, motor vehicle storage 

buildings, maintenance shops, hangars for liaison aircraft, and rifle 

ranges being used by the National Guard on 30 June 1948 was $76,-

000,000. These facilities represented about 46 percent of the require-
3 2 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

ments. The $21,500,000 expended during fiscal year 1949 carried 

the program to approximately 59 percent of completion. 

The budget proposed for fiscal year 1950 includes provisions for 

construction totaling $6,000,000 which would advance the nonarmory construction program to about 62 percent of completion. It 

is estimated that the full program can be completed at an additional 

cost of approximately $63,000,000. 

Funds for construction this year were apportioned among the 

States on the basis of troop allocations. Emphasis was placed on the 

const ruction of the most urgently needed facilities in the over-all 

program. Existing standard plans and specifications for facilities 

were brought up to date and made available to the States. Field 

engineering assistance in the selection of sites, the adaptation of the 

standard plans, the preparation of invitations for bids, and inspections, was available on a reimbursable basis through the District 

Engineers. All projects were reviewed and approved by the National 

Guard Bureau prior to the solicitation of bids. 

Additional Facilities leased, etc. 

The following facilities were acquired by lease through the Corps 

of Engineers: 

28 target ranges. 

22 liaison plane hangar and repair facilities. 

5 offices for Regular Army instructors. 

Storage, maintenance, and administrative facilities at 11 Department of the Army installations were secured from the Department of 

the Army by means of revocable licenses. 

Armories 

Inadequate armory facilities continue to be a major problem. 

The National Guard today has units in over 2,200 communities. 

Some 2,209 armory facilities are being used as compared with 1,969 

at the end of fiscal year 1948. Several States have constructed 

armories, but for the most part those added during this year are 

temporary facilities. The armories are owned or leased to or by the 

States, political subdivisions of States, or other Government agencies 

and organizations, and are being maintained without cost to the 

Federal Government. These armories have a conservative value of 

approximately $500,000,000. It is estimated that approximately 

3,000 structures will be required 10 house the full strength of the 

National Guard. Of the 2,209 armories now being utilized, 575 have 

been reported to be capable of expansion necessary to take care of the 

increasing strength of their National Guard units. Approximately 

574 of the present armories must be replaced. Some States are en-
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 33 

gaged in armory construction at this time—Illinois has a construction 

program for 35 armories, California for 18, Louisiana for 9, and 

Ohio for 6. 

Field Training Facilities 

In providing sites for summer field training, emphasis has been 

placed on the selection oi training facilities which will be available to 

the National Guard from year to year, thus insuring maximum return 

for funds expended. The requirements for summer training and the 

costs of preparing, opening, and closing camps were closely analyzed 

this year and a ceiling for National Guard Bureau support based on 

the number of trainees per camp established. 

Summer field training facilities at some 39 Department of the Army 

and State-owned installations were rehabilitated with National Guard 

Bureau funds this year. Some new facilities also were provided. 

At Camp Jackson, S. C , a Department of the Army installation, 

2,180 permanent, concrete, tent floors were constructed. 

Long-range plans to restore North Camp Hood, Tex., a Department of the Army installation were initiated. It is planned to build 

up site facilities to divisional capacity at this once abandoned camp. 

A general rehabilitation program was begun this year with emphasis 

on mess halls, bath houses, and latrines. A tent camp area was 

cleared; administration buildings and the railroad were repaired, and 

the rifle ranges were restored. 

Additional mess halls and latrines were constructed at Camp West, 

Utah, a State installat on. 

Camp Grayling, Mich., a State installation, also is being developed 

into a divisional training site. Contracts for 12 company size kitchens 

and mess halls, 11 bath houses and latrines, and necessary grading 

and road work were initiated this year. 

Maintenance and Repair 

Assistance was afforded to the States in the maintenance and repair 

of 174 State-owned installations and installations licensed to the States 

by the Department of the Army. Aid for 88 of these installations was 

provided by means of service contracts, which were first used by the 

National Guard last year. Under existing contracts, the portion of 

the costs for operation and maintenance, including provisions for caretakers, utilities, and utilities repair, borne by the Federal Government 

has been fixed at 75 percent of those costs which the National Guard 

Bureau can legally assume. 

In addition to aid provided in the operation and maintenance of 

facilities noted above, 106 rifle ranges operated by the States were 

repaired this year.

Plans for Fiscal Year 1950 

During the coming j7ear the enactment of legislation authorizing 

Federal aid for armories will continue to be a major concern of the 

National Guard Bureau. The construction of storage and maintenance facilities within the over-all plan, as well as the development 

of rifle ranges, will be continued. Long-range plans for the creation 

of adequate training sites and facilities of division capacity will be 

continued through close cooperation with the Department of the 

Army and those States owning installations susceptible of further 

development. Every effort will be made to place under Service contracts all State-operated facilities to which Federal funds for operation, maintenance, and repair are contributed. A utilization survey 

will be made of all Department of the Army facilities held by the 

States under revocable licenses to determine to what extent these 

facilities are being utilized and the need for them. 

A ir Installations and Facilities 

The acquisition of real estate and building sites required by the 

units of the Air National Guard was substantially completed during 

fiscal year 1949. The successful solution of most real estate problems, 

some of which were of long standing and great complexity, and 

included the movement of units from facilities which had proved 

unsatisfactory, permitted emphasis to be centered on construction 

and the modification, rehabilitation, and expansion of existing 

facilities. 

New Construction 

Although $9,969,172 of the 1949 budget had been earmarked for 

Air National Guard construction projects, none of the funds actually 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 35 

became available until mid-October 1948, and $5,000,000 was not 

released until late December. This delay resulted in the loss of the 

entire 1948 construction season and prevented the obligation of a 

desirable portion of the funds during the fall months. In addition, 

the Army Comptroller placed severe restrictions upon expenditures 

needed to reimburse the Corps of Engineers for technical services 

incident to planning, contracting, and the supervision of construction 

projects. It was February 1949 before all misunderstandings were 

resolved so that the construction program could proceed. 

In spite of these delays architectural services were secured and plans 

and specifications for a number of standard buildings were drawn, 

buildings specifically designed to meet the requirements of the various 

types of Air National Guard units. In the drafting of these plans, 

the views of many adjutants general and unit commanders were a 

valuable aid. The standard plans and specifications were used in 

placing construction contracts the latter part of the fiscal year. By 

30 June 1949, contracts involving approximately $10,300,000 had 

been negotiated; the major portion of the work being performed by 

the Corps of Engineers, the remainder by the United States Property 

and Disbursing Officers. Contracts for $330,828 more than original 

budget provisions were made possible by the transfer of funds originally 

planned for other projects. The construction placed under contract 

this year brought the total expenditures for new construction for the 

postwar Air National Guard to more than $16,000,000. Master plans 

for the orderly development of most Air National Guard installations 

have been made. In order to proceed expeditiously when funds 

become available in fiscal year 1950, preliminary work on construction projects estimated to cost $3,720,000 has been completed. 

The construction planned and contracted for this year is but a 

portion of the work remaining to be done to provide the basic facilities 

for the operations of the Air National Guard of today. 

Between World War I and World War II the 29 observation 

squadrons of the National Guard were located for the most part at 

municipal airports, using hangars constructed, in the main, by the 

municipalities or the States. The flying fields were a far cry from 

those of today; some did not have paved runways, but were simply 

high-type, well drained sod fields, adequate for the weights and types 

of aircraft then being operated by the National Guard. There was 

no control tower operation, no crash-fire fighting equipment or safety 

devices which are features of a modern airfield. The Air National 

Guard of today equipped with modern, high-performance military 

planes, including jet-propelled aircraft, requires the best available 

flying facilities, 5,000- to 7,000-foot runways, control towers, crash-
36 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

fire fighting equipment and crews, hard-surfaced parking, high octane 

gasoline storage, and other items. 

An estimated $50,000,000 will be needed to bring the facilities of all 

units to the minimum required. A number of once surplus facilities 

now being used are in an advanced state of deterioration, others 

already have exceeded their designed life span and replacements are 

required. Most units are short one or more important facilities, such 

as airplane parking aprons, warehouse space, or maintenance shops. 

Funds are being allocated on the basis of the greatest need and construction prorated over an extended period of time on a relatively 

uniform annual basis. 

Air National Guard units were established in 113 locations on 30 

June 1949—78 were frying facilities and 35 were nontactical. Of the 

flying facilities, 54 were public airports, 8 were State owned, and 16 

were the property of the Federal Government. The total replacement value of the structures and flying facilities utilized by the Air 

National Guard is estimated to be approximately $1,500,000,000. 

Operation and Maintenance 

The operation and maintenance of Air National Guard facilities 

by the States, on the basis of service contracts, has proved very 

successful. The use of service contracts was pioneered by the 

National Guard Bureau in 1948; considerable savings have resulted. 

It is believed that service contracts have proved their efficacy and 

that maximum value is being received for funds expended. 

Arrangements for Use of Bomb and Gunnery Ranges 

Arrangements for Air National Guard use of bombing and gunnery 

ranges operated and maintained by the Air Force and Navy were continued this year. Arrangements have been made for Air National 

Guard firing schedules to be drawn up by range commanders and 

authorized representatives of the State concerned. The joint use of 

ranges, owned by the Federal Government and operated by the 

Regular services, relieves the States of responsibility for damages or 

injuries which might accrue if States were to assume responsibility 

for the safe operation and maintenance of dangerous facilities of this 

type. 

Wing Facilities 

Action to secure centralized summer training facilities within each 

Air Force area where entire groups and wings can be assembled for 

integrated training was continued in 1949. Summer training at unit 

stations in 1947 and 1948 had not proved satisfactory. Numerous 

summer training sites, under the jurisdiction of the United States 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 37 

Air Force, now are available to the National Guard. Costs are met 

by a direct transfer of National Guard funds to Headquarters, United 

States Air Force. The Air Force will open the camps on a schedule 

agreed upon by representatives of the Air Force and group and wing 

commanders and the States concerned. The Air Force will operate 

and close the camps. It is expected that substantial economies in 

summer training camp costs will result. 

Joint Utilization of Air Facilities 

Studies concerning the joint utilization of air facilities by all components of the Armed Forces were made by the Munitions Board this 

year. The Air National Guard from its experiences with the United 

States Air Force, the United States Air Force Reserve, and the Navy 

was able to make a substantial contribution to the development of 

over-all policies. A conference of Navy, Air Force, and National 

Guard representatives worked out a satisfactory arrangement for 

sharing operating and maintenance costs of facilities used jointly by 

the Air National Guard and Regular services. 

The close of fiscal year 1949 saw the acquisition of real property 

virtually completed, with a relatively simple procedure for the 

acquisition of additional sites well established. All Air units of the 

National Guard had been provided with the facilities sufficient for 

organization, Federal recognition, and initial operations. Sound, 

well-organized plans for minimum essential facilities required by the 

postwar Air National Guard had been developed. The largest construction program in Air National Guard history had been initiated 

under policies and procedures w

T

hich had proved to be effective, as 

well as economical. 

Army Equipment and Supplies 

The basic policy for the supply of the postwar National Guard is 

outlined in the War Department policies for the National Guard 

approved by the Secretary of War, 13 October 1945. Under these 

policies it is the responsibility of the Department of the Army, within 

the limits of appropriations, to clothe, equip, and arm the National 

Guard in the same manner as the Regular Army. 

One year ago the federally recognized Army units of the National 

Guard had approximately 45 percent, itemwise, of the equipment 

authorized by tables of organization and equipment. Today federally 

recognized units have approximately 59 percent, itemwise, of their 

authorized requirements. The percentage of equipment on hand 

compares favorably with the actual strength of the units; Army units 

had 47.3 percent of their authorized strength as of 30 June 1948, and 

50.1 percent as of 30 June 1949. 
38 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

In addition to the continuous action necessary to secure equipment 

and supplies required by the National Guard, special projects undertaken by the National Guard Bureau this year include the initiation 

of a status of equipment reporting system, an inventory of equipment 

issued and required, the concentration of nonarmory drill equipment 

at field training sites, a review of maintenance procedures, and the 

revision of the manual on National Guard supply and accounting. 

Equipment Purchased 

The sum of $31,400,438 was made available to the technical services 

of the Deportment of the Army during she fiscal year for the procurement of new equipment not available for free issue. Funds were 

expended as follows: 

Chief of Ordnance. $14,031.854, for the procurement of ammunition; 5-passenger personnel carriers; %-ton trucks; rocket 

launchers; rubber track for combat vehicles, and various 

other secondary items. 

Quartermaster General. $13,753,846, for items of individual 

equipment and general supplies. 

Chief Signal Officer. $2,000,000, for signal, sound and flash 

ranging equipment; tools; test sets; and radio and telephone 

equipment. 

Surgeon General. $590,000 for items of medical equipment 

required by tables of organization and equipment. 

Chief, Chemical Corps. $24,300, for chemical ammunition. 

Chief of Engineers. $1,000,000, for surveying, pioneer, and 

drafting equipment. 

Issue of Ordnance Equipment 

At the close of fiscal year 1948 the Ordnance Department halted 

the issue of nonreimbursable items to the National Guard, pending 

the completion of availability studies. This action was delaying the 

initial supply of newly organized units and retarding training in those 

units already in existence. Through the efforts of the National Guard 

Bureau the release and free issue of certain vitally needed items, 

including carbines, machine guns, 105-mm. howitzers, 60- and 81-mm. 

mortars, machine-gun mounts, and .45-caliber pistols was arranged. 

Tanks 

The following light and medium tanks were acquired this year and 

are being distributed to the several States: 

100 tanlcs, light, M24. 

885 tanks, medium, M4A1 with 76-mm. gun (deliveries expected 

to be completed by 1 May 1950). 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 39 

744 tanks, medium, M4A3, with 76-mm. gun (deliveries to be 

completed by 31 December 1949). 

The Ordnance Department with Ordnance funds made the repairs 

necessary on 612 of the M4A1 tanks prior to delivery to the National 

Guard. All of the tanks were issued to the National Guard on a 

free-issue basis. 

The tanks are being issued to the States by administrative distribution, a pro rata allocation by the National Guard Bureau of equipment available in limited quantity. A total of 289 administrative 

distributions has been made this year to insure equitable distribution of items in short supply throughout the National Guard. 

Surplus Property 

Surplus property valued at approximately $5,193,027 was obtained 

through the War Assets Administration, Joint Army-Navy Machine 

Tool Committee, Federal Bureau of Supply, and other Defense 

agencies. An inventory of the War Assets Administration stocks 

stored at Camp Atterbury, Ind., was circularized to all States. Distribution of selected items had been completed by 16 May 1949. The 

remaining items have been listed and are being circulated to interested 

agencies. Surplus equipment received included paint-spraying 

machines, air compressors, office furniture, electric drills, fire-fighting 

equipment, and generators. 

Clothing 

The following quantities of individual new clothing had been 

ordered distributed to the States as of 31 March. 1949, with the 

delivery date for the latest increment of khaki, 1 May 1949, and for 

wool, 1 October 1949: 

Fiscal year* 

Fiscal year 19+5-49 

1949 inclusive 

Cap, garrison, cotton, khaki, each 141, 400 382, 777 

Shirt, cotton, khaki, each 181, 607 723, 203 

Trousers, cotton, khaki, each... 160, 240 727, 166 

Cap, garrison, wool, OD 33, each 133, 452 309, 661 

Jacket, wool, OD 33, each 106, 289 492, 084 

Trousers, field, wool, OD 33, each 156, 748 654, 393 

In addition to the distribution of new clothing, a redistribution of 

clothing between various States was made. Bulk shipments of clothing are made to the States for units authorized to be activated. 

Although this permits the new unit to issue clothing to its members 

in good time, some overages in certain sizes result. During one period 

of 3 months the dollar value of clothing items redistributed totaled 

more than $200,000. Over 100 redistributions since December 1947 

have resulted in the maximum utilization of National Guard stocks. 
4 0 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

Although the majority of the shipments covered items of clothing, 

approximately 50 different technical service items also have been 

redistributed. 

Marking Individual Clothing and Equipment 

A new method has been adopted for the marking of items of individual clothing and equipment of National Guardsmen. The identifier consists of a letter and number designating the unit, and a number 

to designate the individual in each unit. The new marking system 

was adopted because of the personnel turn-over in National Guard 

units which resulted in some individual items of supply being issued 

to several men in turn. The use of the serial number of the individual, 

as required in the Regular Army, would have resulted in identifications becoming illegible and clof

hing being smeared, through successive changes. The new designator will require a minimum of change 

when items are reissued to new men. 

Field Training Supplies 

To insure adequate supplies for field training at State-owned installations this summer, the States were requested to report their requirements in January 1949. Supplies thus were shipped well in advance 

of training. In addition, arrangements were made for army and 

oversea commanders to loan equipment to the National Guard for 

field training. Immediately prior to the summer camp period the 

National Guard Bureau received information indicating that the 

supply of ammunition for new weapons recently issued was insufficient. 

Immediate action taken by the Bureau resulted in minimum training 

requirements being shipped in time for use. Conferences were held 

in each army area prior to field training, for the purpose of solving 

problems concerning the transportation of personnel and equipment. 

Logistical Support for the Alaska National Guard 

Plans for the logistical support of the Alaska National Guard by 

United States Army installations in that Territory have been approved. Authority for the organization of National Guard units in 

Alaska was given in April 1949. A survey of items required by the 

cold climate, which are not available locally, has been made and 

will be the basis for procurement during the coming fiscal year. 

Technical Service Repairs 

A total of $9,440,312 was spent for the rehabilitation of unserviceable 

but repairable equipment as follows: 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 41 

Chief of Ordnance. $8,337,434, for the repair of combat vehicles, 

high sp£ed tractors, artillery, small arms, and fire control 

equipment. 

Chief Signal Officer. $458,456, for the repair of radio sets SCR 

584. 

Chief Engineer. $644,422, for the repair of tractors, motorized 

shop equipment, and surveying instruments. 

The issue of NRFI (not ready for issue) general-purpose vehicles 

has been completed, bringing the total so acquired to 32,296 motor 

vehicles and 8,812 trailers. The repair of most of the vehicles issued 

permitted a reduction of 548 civilian employees in State maintenance 

shops. 

Equipment on Hand 

A survey of some 300 selected major items of equipment issued to 

federally recognized units was made as of 31 March 1949. The 

survey covered such items as 155-mm. self-propelled guns, motor 

vehicles, tanks, armored cars, etc., as well as smaller items, such as 

pistols and rifles. The following table shows the percentages on 

hand 31 March: 

Ordnance 55. 8 

(Heavy weapons and vehicles only) 53. 4 

Quartermaster 76. 0 

Signal 64.0 

Chemical 95. 0 

Medical 56. 0 

Engineer (vehicles) 51. 0 

Other 21. 0 

The approximate value of equipment on hand 31 March 1949, 

based on current procurement costs, was as follows: 

Ordnance $596, 135, 404 

Signal 72,946,397 

Quartermaster 206, 521, 522 

Chemical 4, 465, 534 

Medical 4,825,306 

Engineer 23,448,022 

908, 342, 185 

Army units, with few exceptions, are adequately equipped for 

weekly armory drill periods. However, the equipment on hand is 

not completely adequate for field training, nor will it meet the added 

requirements of an increased troop strength. Additional equipment 

also will be required to meet the needs of the new 3-year training 

program, and there is a continuing requirement for the replacement 

of equipment worn out through fair wear and tear. 
4 2 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

Ma mtenance 

The first postwar State maintenance plans were based on projected 

requirements. This year it was felt that requirements for the maintenance of National Guard equipment had become sufficiently stable 

so that maintenance plans could be established on a more realistic 

basis. Therefore, a comprehensive sample plan, based upon approved 

operating procedures, was developed by the National Guard Bureau. 

The sample plan was furnished to each State as a guide in the development of detailed State plans, to include a delineation of the duties 

and responsibilities of United States property and disbursing officers, 

State maintenance officers, caretakers, technicians, and other persons 

concerned; the duties and schedules of contact teams; lists of supporting Army and technical service installations; as well as the assignment 

of units to service centers within the State. All of the States have 

submitted revised plans for approval. 

The civilian personnel authorizations for State maintenance shops 

were reviewed and new authorizations formulated, based on equipment on hand in the States and the latest technical service maintenance policies. Supervisors, mechanics, repairmen, and other 

maintenance specialists for State maintenance shops will be based on 

the new authorization tables effective 1 July 1949. The new authorizations make no drastic changes in State maintenance shops, but 

provide a sounder basis for personnel as more and more equipment 

is issued to the States. There are now 56 State maintenance shops 

employing 2,668 persons. Six maintenance shops have been closed 

this year due to shop consolidations. All shops were inspected by 

National Guard Bureau representatives this year. 

Most States are authorized service centers to assist in preventive 

maintenance, repair, and inspections. Operations of service centers 

also were reviewed this year. It was determined that a service center 

should service vehicles of units not more than 35 miles distant. One 

mechanic now is authorized a service center serving from 2 to 4 units, 

with additional mechanics assigned as the number of units assigned 

increases. Mobile contact teams from State maintenance shops make 

scheduled visits to service centers to inspect and make repairs, thus 

reducing the amount of unserviceable equipment that otherwise would 

have to be moved to the State maintenance shop. 

Concentration of Equipment 

Plans have been formulated for the concentration, in central storage 

facilities, of bulky items of equipment not required for weekly training 

periods. Considerable National Guard equipment, including such 

items as motorized cranes, graders, track-laying vehicles, tentage. 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 43 

gasoline tanks, etc., are used only during field training periods. It 

was realized that the concentration of this nonarmory drill equipment 

would not only relieve unit commanders of responsibility but permit 

more efficient maintenance with less personnel. The selection of 

concentration points at field training sites wherever possible, was 

recommended, not only because processing before and after field training would be facilitated, and the wear and tear on equipment be 

reduced, but because considerable savings in field training transportation costs would be effected. Concentration sites had been established at a few training camps by 30 June 1949, and efforts to establish 

them in the other States will be continued during the coming year. 

Inventories 

It has become increasingly important for the National Guard 

Bureau to have detailed current information concerning major items 

of equipment required by the National Guard and equipment on hand. 

The problem has been complicated by changes in authorized allowances, changes in National Guard reduction tables (usually a 20 percent reduction),' changes in the troop basis, redesignations of units, 

development of new items of equipment, and requirements for the 

replacement of items worn out in the military service. 

A record of each major item of equipment has been initiated, showing the requirements and assets by State. Requirements are based 

upon the latest tables of organization and equipment withNational 

Guard reduction tables applied, the latest tables of allowances, and 

the troop basis. Distributions made by the National Guard Bureau 

and assets reported by the States from other sources are posted 

against recorded requirements. It is expected that this record will 

be completed during fiscal year 1950. 

The Army has initiated a Nation-wide status of equipment report 

maintained by a machine records unit at Army headquarters. Preparations have been made for a parallel record of the status of National 

Guard equipment. Status of equipment reports at State level as of 

30 June 1949 have been requested. To determine the work load 

involved in extending the inventory to unit level, a test is being made 

with the 45th Division of Oklahoma. It is anticipated that the program will be implemented at unit level during the coming fiscal year. 

The machine records unit in the National Guard Bureau will require 

some augmentation to handle the program. 

Supply Letters 

The first issue of a'National Guard Bureau supply letter, scheduled 

for publication twice a month, was made in July 1948. The letter 

was designed to furnish theJStates with a*regular flow of supply infor886343—80 i 
4 4 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

mation and has been very well received. Information concerning the 

availability and nonavailability of items of equipment, automatic 

issues, authorized substitutes, and new policies and procedures have 

been disseminated by this means. 

Conferences 

Two conferences of United States Property and Disbursing Officers 

were held this year, the first at St. Louis in September 1948, and the 

second in Washington, D. C, the last of February. All acting 

United States Property and Disbursing Officers assigned to the 

various States, as well as a large percentage of State adjutants general 

and members of the State staffs attended. A great many supply 

problems confronting the States were solved at the conferences; 

the National Guard Bureau was able to review the supply situation 

from the Bureau standpoint, answer questions, and confer with 

individual representatives from the States. 

Accounting procedures for the National Guard (TM 38-275) have 

been revised and brought up to date. Distribution of the new 

publication is expected about 1 August 1949. A total of 27 tables of 

allowances for headquarters and headquarters detachments have been 

published this year. The publication of the table of allowances for 

the Alaskan Headquarters Detachment, now being reviewed by the 

technical services, will complete this program. In addition, the table 

of allowances for Quartermaster expendable supplies and the table of 

allowances for National Guard instructors have been published. 

A i r Equipment 

The Air National Guard had received approximately 76 percent of 

the Army and Air Force equipment, authorized by tables of organization and equipment, by 30 June 1949. It had 82 percent of its 

currently authorized aircraft and 100 percent of the spare aircraft 

engines required. Of the 2,764 aircraft presently authorized the 

Air National Guard, 2,263 have been received. One hundred and 

four of these are jet-propelled fighters, and a total of 1,843 are combattype aircraft. Although aircraft for the Air National Guard are provided from surplus stocks without reimbursement, a shortage of 

USAF funds this year made it necessary for the National Guard 

Bureau to provide funds sufficient to pay for processing aircraft 

through the depots and preparing them for use. The priority of the 

Air National Guard for items of equipment in short supply at the 

beginning of the year was below that for lend-lease activities. Recommendations for a higher priority, approved 20 May 1949, place the 

Air National Guard immediately below the Regular Air Force. 

The budget for the Air National Guard during fiscal year 1949 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 4 5 

totaled approximately $78,000,000, of which 15.1 percent was utilized 

for the procurement of needed equipment not available for free issue. 

The funds available were not sufficient to provide all equipment 

required, and the high cost of new equipment added to the difficulties. 

Contracts for the purchase of new equipment negotiated by Headquarters, Air Materiel Command revealed that costs today are many 

times higher than wartime costs. In addition, delivery dates set by 

contractors busy with civilian markets were objectionably far in the 

future. Based on a survey of all Air Force T/O & E equipment in 

the possession of the National Guard made by Headquarters, Air 

Materiel Command, representatives of the Air Materiel Command 

and the National Guard Bureau determined which equipment purchases were most essential this year. The Bureau also surveyed 

Ordnance and Engineer T/O & E equipment for this purpose. In 

spite of difficulties the procurement program has improved steadily. 

On 30 June the Bureau held over 350 contracts negotiated by Headquarters, Air Materiel Command for items of equipment with delivery 

dates of from 3 to 12 months. 

The estimated value of technical service equipment issued to units 

of the Air National Guard by the end of fiscal year 1949 was in excess 

of $40,000,000; Air Force equipment exclusive of aircraft was valued 

at approximately $12,000,000; and aircraft and engines were valued 

at approximately $226,689,000. 

Surplus equipment valued at $1,000,000 was acquired for Air 

National Guard use this year, by maintaining close liaison with the 

Surplus Procurement unit, Department of the Army, and by screening 

Excess Property lists prepared by Headquarters, Air Materiel 

Command. 

Air Force Manual 67-1, 1 June 1948, which outlines Air supply procedures, was issued to all Air units during July and August 1948. 

Subsequently, 5-day conferences were held in each Air Materiel area 

for the indoctrination of unit supply personnel in the procedures outlined in the manual. 

Distribution of Aircraft 

New units have been organized more rapidly than aircraft authorized under T/O & E could be secured for issue. To alleviate shortages 

many transfers of aircraft from older units to new units were made 

during the year, insuring that all units had some aircraft, but increasing the over-all number of units below T/O & E authorization. All 

units are being brought to full aircraft strength as rapidly as possible. 

A number of aircraft projects now in progress will result in more 

aircraft for the National Guard; aircraft excess to USAF needs continue 

to become available. 
4 6 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

B-26 type aircraft were reduced to two aircraft per utility flight 

this year and the excess B-26's were assigned to light bomb squadrons 

to bring them closer to full T/O & E strength. All T-l l type aircraft 

assigned to fighter squadrons have been transferred to bomb squadrons 

in accordance with current T/O & E's. 

The transfer of L-5 type aircraft from the Air Guard to the Army 

National Guard had been almost completed by the end of the fiscal 

year. L-5 type aircraft no longer are included in the Air National 

Guard program. 

Cracked wing spars in B-26 type aircraft have presented a special 

problem. Internal inspections of the wings of B-26 planes, now 

required, have revealed numerous cases of cracked wing spars. A 

cracked spar causes the aircraft to be lost as it is not repairable in 

accordance with present standards. Several corrective measures are 

being considered by the Air Materiel Command. 

The delivery of 90 F-84 type aircraft has been delayed pending 

the completion of aircraft modifications. Plans formulated for the 

transition training of pilots, and action initiated to furnish receiving 

units with special tools and ground handling equipment, have been 

suspended until the aircraft are ready for issue. 

Forty-five C-47 type aircraft, for which the Air National Guard has 

an immediate requirement, are being reconditioned by the Aircraft 

Maintenance Corp., Van Nuys, Calif. Contracts were negotiated 

through Headquarters, USAF, and the Air Materiel Command. 

Running Inventory of Aircraft 

As the number of aircraft issued to units increased, so did the 

necessity for the National Guard Bureau to know the immediate 

location of all aircraft. A daily inventory system by State, unit, and 

aircraft was set up in the National Guard Bureau. Aircraft now may 

be transferred to and from units only under the direction of, or with 

the prior approval of, the National Guard Bureau. Completed transfers are reported to the National Guard Bureau by an "aircraft gained 

or loss" report. The monthly inventory reports furnished by all units 

to the Air Materiel Command provide a further check on the accuracy 

of Bureau records. 

Communications Equipment 

Lack of radar equipment continues to be the major problem in 

equipping aircraft control and warning units. Most of the electronics 

equipment needed is carried on the critical equipment list by USAF 

and the Army Signal Corps. A continuous effort has been made to 

secure essential equipment or satisfactory substitutes. It has been 

necessary, as in fiscal year 1948, to issue radar sets such as types 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 47 

SCR-270 and SCR-527, which were widely used during World War II. 

The National Guard Bureau also obtained 18 type SN, and 15 type 

SQ radar sets from the Navy on a nonreimbursable basis, and further 

distribution was made of the Signal Corps light weight portable radar 

set, AN/TPS-2. Although these sets are not the equivalent of the 

new sets authorized by T/O & E, they do provide training facilities 

for operating and maintenance personnel. Most of the sets issued 

have operating frequencies in the commercial broadcast, police, and 

television bands, and, except in isolated areas, cannot be put into 

operation on a noninterference basis. A modification kit is being 

procured for the SCR-527 set which will permit its operation within 

a Government band of frequencies. The modification kits will be 

distributed to aircraft control squadrons for installation by squadron 

personnel during fiscal year 1950. 

Radios 

Air National Guard aircraft are equipped with 4-channel VHF radio 

sets. The modern 8-channel VHF radio with which the 4-channel 

set is to be replaced is critically short and has not yet become available 

to the National Guard. The 4-channel set in use is satisfactory for 

training and for airborne and air-to-ground communications. To 

facilitate training in flight navigation, two fighter type aircraft in each 

unit have been equipped with radio compass sets of the ANARN-7 

type. Aircraft equipped with the radio compass can be used as lead 

planes in mass formation flights. The unsatisfactory radio receiver, 

Detrola BC-1206, was replaced this year by the BC-453. 

The high powered radio sets, SCR-399, obtained during fiscal year 

1949, together with those procured the previous year, were sufficient 

to provide one for each wing communications squadron, aircraft control and warning squadron (large scale), and aircraft control squadron, 

except for three units federally recognized at the end of the year. 

This set is the most desirable from the standpoint of power, mobility, 

and versatility. It is expected that the remainder of these sets 

authorized by T/O & E will be procured next year. 

Mobile VHF radio equipment has been issued to aircraft control 

and warning units on the basis of one SCR-573, SCR-574 and SCR575 set for each unit. This equipment will enable units to perform 

training functions of interception and control with fighter aircraft 

and assist in alleviating shortages in direction finding and radio 

communications equipment. 

Telephone and Telegraph Equipment 

Signal Corps telephone and telegraph equipment scheduled for procurement during fiscal year 1950 will correct deficiencies that have 
48 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

been a problem this year. Signal Corps meteorological equipment 

also has been in short supply. An inventory of these shortages is 

being used in an exhaustive screening of all available supplies and as 

the basis for procurement next year. 

Valuable surplus electronics property was turned over to the 

National Guard this year by the War Assets Administration. This 

equipment, cataloged and screened by the Bureau, consisted of spare 

parts and replacement items for radio, radar, and telephone communications equipment, many of which are in short supply. It is 

anticipated that the bulk of this equipment will be issued to units 

during the first part of fiscal year 1950. 

Philco Corporation Technical Representatives 

To provide technical assistance to National Guard aircraft warning 

and control units and communications units, a contract for the 

services of three radar specialists and three communications specialists 

was made with the Philco Corp. The assistance of these technical 

representatives has been invaluable in the solution of technical radar 

and communications problems, in setting up equipment, and in training the specialists required for radar and communications units, as 

well as in general administrative and suppby activities. Six additional 

technicians are being placed under contract for fiscal year 1950. 

By assigning one technician to each Air National Guard wing, more 

comprehensive assistance will be possible. 

Field Training Equipment 

Equipment not yet available for issue, but needed for the coming 

field training period, is being loaned to National Guard units by 

Headquarters, Air Materiel Command, the Air Materiel areas, and 

numbered air forces. This equipment is being loaned, only, and must 

be returned in good condition at the conclusion of field training. 

Master Repair Schedule 

Arrangements for the repair of equipment were greatly improved 

this year by the inclusion of the Air National Guard in the master 

repair schedules of the Air Materiel Command. The master repair 

schedules are projected on repair requirement forecasts for a 12-

month period. They are revised each 6 months. The schedules 

thus prepared enable agencies concerned to anticipate work required 

and stock parts in such quantities as to effect repairs promptly. 

During the first part of the year there was a considerable backlog of 

National Guard reparable items in Air Materiel areas. Delays in 

the return of reparable items were resulting in the depletion of replacement stocks for which reimbursements were required, and thus a 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 4 9 

further decrease in funds for the procurement of new equipment. 

The master repair schedules will establish an increased amount of 

open stock available to the National Guard, expedite the return of 

items turned in for repair, and effect over-all savings. 

Operation and Maintenance Support 

The National Guard Bureau allocated funds to the various States 

for the operation and maintenance of flying equipment, including the 

local procurement of aviation gasoline and lubricants. To insure 

equitable distribution and strict economy in the use of funds, a yearly 

expenditure program based on budget funds available was published 

for the guidance of United States Property and Disbursing Officers 

at the beginning of the fiscal year. Complete justifications furnished 

by USP & DO's for all funds requested are the basis on which distributions to the various States, Territories, and the District of 

Columbia are made. 

Operation and maintenance costs for fiscal year 1949 totaled 

$15,334,607, or J9.5 percent of the Air National Guard budget. 

A simplified procedure for reimbursing the United States Navy for 

aviation gasoline and lubricants furnished transient National Guard 

aircraft was established this year. 

The policy established for the repair or reclamation of National 

Guard aircraft damaged away from home stations provides that the 

USAF, National Guard, or jointly occupied Air Base concerned, 

will repair or reclaim National Guard aircraft from other stations 

without assistance from the unit to which the aircraft is assigned. 

This procedure effects savings in expenditures which would be required for travel and per diem if the Air technicians of the aircraft's 

unit were required to make the repairs. 

The specialized aircraft maintenance system developed by the 

66th Fighter Wing, Illinois National Guard, was published for the 

information of all adjutants general. The merits of the maintenance 

program of the 66th Wing impressed a group of staff visitors who 

believed that it might well be used as a basis for implementing 

standardized maintenance procedures throughout the Air National 

Guard. 

Each of the five jet fighter squadrons of the Air National Guard 

utilizing F-80 type aircraft have been provided with technical assistance in the utilization of their recently issued jet equipment. A 

representative from the Lockheed Aircraft Corp. and one from the 

Allison Engine Corp. were provided each squadron by means of commercial contracts arranged by the National Guard Bureau. 

Armament equipment which had been removed from tactical aircraft was ordered restored this year in order that all tactical aircraft, 
50 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

in case of emergency, be immediately available. Instructions for 

requisitioning armament required and the return of surplus armament 

to storage depots were furnished by the National Guard Bureau. 

Difficulties encountered with tow-target equipment installed in 

B-26 type aircraft resulted in authorizing the modification of two 

fighter type aircraft in each squadron for utilization as additional 

tow-target aircraft. 

Weather and Flight Services 

The establishment of weather and military flight services at each 

Air National Guard fighter and light bombardment squadron base, 

not part of a USAF installation, had been completed by the end of 

fiscal year 1949. Civil Aeronautics Authority and USAF weather 

services are received by means of commercial teletype machines 

rented by the National Guard. The Military Flight Service, USAF 

Plan 62, provides clearances for all flights in the United States. 

While weather services listed above provide excellent coverage and 

information needed for the training of weather personnel, facsimile 

weather service, the most up-to-date form, has not been available 

because of budgetary limitations. USAF has recommended that the 

Air National Guard be provided with some form of facsimile service 

in order that flight and weather personnel may be trained in the 

newer meteorological techniques. Since USAF and Signal Corps 

T/O & E facsimile weather equipment is not available, rental of such 

equipment during fiscal year 1950 is under consideration. The 

National Guard Bureau has completed preliminary plans for the 

installation of Model RG facsimile recorders at each Air National 

Guard base not a part of a USAF installation. However, considerable coordination with American Telephone & Telegraph Co., Times 

Facsimile Corp., USAF, and Airways and Air Communications 

Service remains to be accomplished. 

Control Tower Service 

Control tower services are provided at most bases of the Air National 

Guard by means of service contracts with the Civil Aeronautics 

Authority or municipal agency concerned. Five Air National Guard 

bases, where USAF or CAA control tower services were not available, 

were issued USAF and Signal Corps items of control tower communications equipment this year. Units which had access to CAA services, 

but not military communications facilities, were provided with a 

VHF radio set. Funds for the installation of the set were furnished 

CAA and action initiated to secure necessary radio frequency 

clearances. 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 51 

Transient Facilities at National Guard Air Bases 

In previous years National Guard Air bases have operated facilities 

for transient aircraft only during the normal working hours of caretaker staffs. At the request of USAF, this year Air National Guard 

bases were required to furnish transient facilities on a 24-hour basis, 

unless USAF transient facilities were available at the base. Numerous 

objections to the requirement for 24-hour service were received from 

bases with small caretaker staffs and from those which experienced 

very little or no transient traffic. A modification of the requirement, 

which would exempt certain bases from maintaining 24-hour service, 

now is under consideration. 

Flyins Safety 

There has been a noticeable downward trend in the Air National 

Guard aircraft accident rate during fiscal year 1949. The improvement is gratifying and indicates that the emphasis being placed on 

safety is getting results. During the year, 39 officers and 4 enlisted 

men of the Air National Guard were killed in military aircraft accidents. The fatality rate was consistent with that of the Regular Air 

Force for the types of planes flown. 

All flying safety publications of the USAF have been made available 

to Air National Guard personnel. In addition the National Guard 

Bureau has made a continuous study and analysis of Air Guard accidents; any trend in accidents is automatically noticeable, and the 

corrective action indicated taken. The National Guard Bureau has 

published flying safety bulletins on subjects which seem to constitute 

problems to the Air Guard. 

To increase pilot efficiency the National Guard this year adopted 

the Air Force requirement that pilots maintain a minimum of 100 

flying hours. All squadrons are required to have a flying safety 

officer and an officer in charge of instrument flying. A system of 

flying safety awards has been established as an additional incentive 

for the elimination of aircraft accidents. The award will be made to 

the fighter squadron and the light bombardment squadron with the 

lowest accident rate, based upon 100,000 flying hours, each calendar 

year. 

The emphasis placed on the flying safety program, the increased 

proficiency of all pilots, and the increased experience of caretaker 

personnel have contributed to the improvements in the accident rate 

this year. Constant, vigorous application of safety measures by 

commanding officers and flying safety officers should continue to 

reduce the number of aircraft accidents. 
5 2 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

STATE AND COMMUNITY SERVICE 

Men of the National Guard have fought blizzard, fire, and flood 

throughout the year, although today the protection of life and property 

and the preservation of peace, order, and public safety, at State call, 

is a secondary mission of the National Guard. The National Guard 

is the ultimate resource of the State when emergencies arise beyond the 

scope of other State agencies. The high lights of some of the year's 

activities recorded here are typical of the services of guardsmen to 

their States and communities. 

Blizzards of '49 

One of the worst snow storms in our history crippled the States of 

Nebraska, Utah, Wyoming, Nevada, and South Dakota, and 

threatened surrounding States in January and February 1949. The 

National Guard was called into action, in the air and on the ground, 

to rescue the isolated and clear the roads. As heavy snow, fierce 

winds, and subzero cold continued week after week, the Regular 

Army, Red Cross, and other agencies throughout the Nation, joined 

to alleviate suffering, prevent loss of life, and loss of millions of 

livestock. 

Nebraska called into service seven of its National Guard units. 

Some 224 guardsmen put into operation 49 weasels, 308 bulldozers, 

7 "snogos," and 17 aircraft, in addition to general-purpose vehicles. 

Eight-men ground rescue teams delivered food, medical supplies, 

fuel, and hay to isolated ranch homes. 

Wyoming's 187th Fighter Squadron made 190 supply drops in the 

first 17 days of the disaster. Utah's Air Guard maintained a steady 

shuttle from Salt Lake City with 50 bale, 4,500-pound loads of feed 

for 1,500,000 starving sheep. North Dakota's 178th Fighter Squadron 

was similarly employed. South Dakota Guardsmen helped open 

815 miles of roads and free 262 families from the snow blockade. 

Arizona's Air Guard dropped Red Cross food packages to villages and 

hospitals isolated on the Navajo Indian Reservation. California's 

272d AAA Battalion, in four 18-hour days, rescued 53 persons 

marooned in the Laguna mountains. 

Operation Polio 

The activity of the Texas Air National Guard against the deadly 

enemy, poliomyelitis, is typical of the use of the guard by other 

States against this disease. Flying more than 1,000 missions over a 

dozen cities, including San Antonio and Wichita Falls, Texas Air 

Guard F-51's, B-26's, and C-47's sprayed 400,000 pounds of DDT 

for a death-dealing blow to flies and other insects suspected of contributing to polio. 
REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 5 3 

Fire 

Company F, 130th Infantry was called to aid when fire ravaged 

St. Anthony's Hospital in Effingham, 111., claiming 57 lives. Guardsmen regulated crowds, helped rescuers, and established a temporary 

morgue at the armory. 

Tornado, Hurricane, and Flood 

One of the worst floods to ravage Fort Worth, Tex., that in April 

1949, made thousands of citizens homeless, claimed a number of lives, 

and caused extensive property damage. Thirteen units of the Texas 

National Guard were mobilized to work with the Regular Army, 

Navy, and Air Force in disaster work. National Guard troops were 

on duty for 5 weeks. 

Louisiana has long fought treacherous swamps, bayous, and rivers 

for the lives of its people. In view of the need, men of the 3671st 

Grdnance Medium Maintenance Company, who maintain ordnance 

equipment at the State maintenance shop, organized a volunteer amphibious DUKW. unit for patrol duty in emergencies. Among many 

search and rescue activities, they recovered the bodies of two men, 

sealed in a plane which crashed in swamp waters varying in depth 

from 15 to 50 feet. The 769th AAA Battalion, Louisiana National 

Guard, also used DUKW's to good advantage, when the Mississippi 

River poured through the levee at Port Allen, by criss-crossing the 

flood area, evacuating stranded families. In 1 night, they delivered 

400 persons to the refugee center. In addition, they established a 

radio network, set up field kitchens at the refugee center and near 

the levee, and patrolled the levee, working shoulder deep in water to 

plug poles. 

Company M of the 116th Infantry, Virginia National Guard, was 

called to assist in rescue operations, prevent looting, and direct traffic 

when the North River swept through the town of Bridgewater. In 

reporting activities to the Adjutant General of Virginia, the commanding officer of Company M concluded, "Rockingham County 

contains a great many persons of influence who belong to strong, antimilitary, religious groups. It is very gratifying to receive the expressions of commendation and gratitude from these same people. 

It is believed that for the first time, the people of this count}7 realize 

that their National Guard unit is prepared, willing, and able to help 

them in time of local disaster, as well as fight their wars." National 

Guard units were commended by civic leaders and civic organizations 

for services in local emergencies on many occasions. 
54 REPORT OF THE CHIEF, NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

CONCLUSION 

The close of fiscal year 1949 finds the National Guard strengthened 

on every side. With 356,000 men organized in 514 Air units and 

4,597 Army units—units which are located in over 2,200 communities 

throughout our country—the National Guard stands ready to assist 

State and Nation whenever the need arises. 

The achievements this year have been accomplished through the 

efforts of many. The National Guard Bureau's staff of Regular, 

Reserve, and National Guard officers and civilian personnel has shown 

initiative and zeal; many agencies of the Departments of the Army, 

Air Force, and Navy have cooperated; the support of the general 

public, the press, radio, television, and of business, labor, and industry 

has been of great assistance. The National Guard itself stands 

testimony to the energy, enthusiasm, and devotion of its guardsmen. 

The coming year will continue to be a challenge. The budget will 

permit strength to be increased from 356,000 to 399,500. Additional 

Army units will be organized with emphasis on the complete organization of all units of the divisions and regimental combat teams. 

The improvement of facilities and the supply and maintenance of 

equipment are continuing requirements. A solution to the increasingly critical armory shortage must be found. The vital role of the 

National Guard in the security of the Nation will continue to require 

relentless effort, to the end that ever higher levels of training may beachieved and maintained.
