There are few regiments in the army
older than the Indiana Twenty-third
Infantry, which was ordered to- leave
Fort Harrison at Indianapolis this
morning for the Mexican border. The
regiment is 101 years old. having been
organized at the beginning of the war
of 1912. 1T has seen much active serv-
ice and was for years a rival of the
famous Seventh Cavalry, command ed
by Gen. Custer, for ability and bravery.
The Twenty-third is known as the
crack regiment of the army today. It's
men are trained the best, the equip
ment is the latest. and there IS at its
head in the person of Col. Edwin #.
Glenn one of the ablest leaders in the
service. as was shown by his appoint
ment to command the Fourth Brigade
during the present campaign.
In 1912 Congress made provision for
twenty five additional regiments. The
Twenty-third was one of those or
ganized and IT took part in the war in
the three years that Immediately fol-
lowed. its organization. participating in
