This will be followed very shortly

soldiers comprising the provisional
brigades at Galveston, Texas, and San
Diego, California. From San Diego
most of the soldiers will go to San
Francisco and Monterey.
Even the maneuver division at San
Antonio will be split up into several
units and distributed throughout Tex

ever the division will be arranged sc
that it can be quickly assembled tc
meet any emergency.
The warships which have rendez
voused at Guantanamo and San Diego
