RECALLED ARMY MEN
BACK FROM GERMANY
Captains Rockenbach and Shar-
tie Report to Chief Of Staff
Scott.

Capts. S. d. Rockenbach, Of the Elev-
coast artillery, two of the American
military observers of this country who
were sent to Germany and who have
been recalled, reached Washington to-
day. and Immediately reported to Cen
eral Scott, chief of staff.
As in the case of Major Langhorne,
former military attache at Berlin, who
was recalled, the utmost reticence was
observed at the War Department. 1t
was given out that orders were not to
talk.
The two OFFICERS will make reports of
their observations for the benefit Of
the general staff, the War College, and
the army in general They were with
the German armies both in the east and
the west
No light has been shed officially on
the real reasons for the recall of these
and other observers with the German
armies. The story that the American
the feeling of the Germans over ship
ments of American material to the
allies persists.
One version of this is that the feeling
was such 1t threatened to lead to chal-
lenges to duels. On the other hand,
Captain Rockenbach Is quoted as saying
the observers were treated with the
utmost courtesy. He is also quoted as
saying Lord Kitchener probably was
right In estimating the war would last
three years.
1t is known that the War Department
has been advised by its observers that
Germany has put forward only about ~
per cent of its aggregate military
strength.
