| Col Elliott c. Dill, inspector gen.
eral of rifle practice on Gov. Hills
stan, has addressed the following let
ter to the commanders of the various
companies of the National Guard OF
the State of Maine..
Permit me at this time to call your
attention to the fact that. the present
season for small arms Qualification
ends, Oct. 81. eng Pc t4,y4yl ar
This years preliminary practice has
been of high order and especiaIIy
gratifying to this department, but i'm
order that the practice be made of
lasting benefit it should be followed
by an equally good record in oualifi-
cation. And it is to this matter of
qualification that 1 wish you to give
your particular attention for the re-
mainder of the present season. IT is
due to the men who have done faith
full work on the range that they be
given ample opportunity for qualifica-
ton, in order that they may receive
the badges of craftsmanship provided
by the State. Men who have made
preliminary scores emitting them to
attempt qualification in the sharp
shooters class will usually take pains
to qualify. Careful attention on the
part of company officers and company
inspectors of rifle practice will find a
number who will qualify as first-class
marksmen, and a large percentage of
the remainder may be qualified as
marksmen if company officers will see
that the men go to the range.
l am DESTROYS that the commissioned
officers give special attention to quail
fication with the revolver, and their
attention is called to Paragraph II,
G. o., No. Z, A. G. o., c. s., for in
formation as to qualification scores.
These scores may be taken from the
entire seasons revolver practice and
need not be made on the same day.
The attention of commanding off,
GERS and company inspectors of rifle
practice is called to G. o., No. 4, A. G..
o., C. S., for regulations governing
small arms practice fori qualification
Blanks for making return of rifle,
carbine and revolver qualification
practice will be obtained from the
adjutant general on requisition. Com
pany commanders will be careful in
regard to forwarding all postal score
cards to this office, for it is on the
expenditure of ammunition, as shown
by these cards. that the reimbursement
is made for powder used in reloading
cartridges.
Final returns of qualification prac-
tice must reach this office not later
than Nov. 10. but it will facilitate the
work of this department if returns
are made promptly on completion OF
practice.
