QUESTION OF IDENTITY.
DROPS ONLY "MGHT INFANTRY
On Return From War Body VIII
Doubtlcss. Continue A Cavalry
Org nfsati o n-Onlcially, First
Squadron, First Virginia Cavalry.

Major e. w. Bowles, of the Rich
mond Blues. gave out the following
statement as to the identity of the
Blues:
The question. will the Blues lose
their identity7 has been asked so
often since the call came on wednes-
day last. that l am glad of the oppor-
tunity to make statement in respect
to that. The separate identity of the
Blues and their privileges under the
Dick bill, which have been continued.
and. in fact, enlarged under the terms
Of the new Hay Chamberlain bill, IL
not dependent upon their being q
separate infantry unit. but is based
solely on tho fact that 1t has been es-
War Department. that the Blues have
been in existence since 1889 The
privileges which the organization has
enjoyed have been such as are enjoy
ed by all organizations which can
prove continuous service since 1792.
THE change from infantry to cav
airy will not affect the organizations
identity, and Its ancient privileges
under the two bills. but on the con-
trary. will more closely serve to con-
tinue that identity by reason OF the
AoIt thdt thCt Will uuQouDIeuly COH-
tinus as cavalry on their return, and,
inasmuch as the division to. which they
belong 10 entitled to one squadron of
cavalry to fill It's cavalry complete
ment, 1t can readily be seen that there
Ia more reason than ever why the
identity and the continuous existence
Of the organization should not be dis
turbed.
"A' number Of people have asked
what II to be the name of the new or
ganizaton. 1t matters not whether
we are infantry. cavalry or artillery,
we shall always be known as the
Richmond Light Infantry Blues, or
as we are more often spoken of in re-
cent years. The Richmond Blues and
further. the fact that we are now cav
airy instead of infantry serves only
to change the offcial designation. In
fact, we have not, for the last several
decades, been Light Infantry When
the organization was first formed
there was a distinction made between
light and heavy Infantry and the
Blues were at first known as the Rich
