HOW THE RAINBOW DIVISION


Everyone has been asking where the
nickname Rainbow division which
is famous all over the country now,
came from While not of the most vi
tai importance, the significance with
which those high in command of the
division regard the sobriquet makes
the fact that its origin is no longer
mystery matter of interest. 1t was
General Mann himself who gave the di-
vision the name.
When General Mann was in Wash
ington discussing the organization of
his Command with prominent officials
of tho war department, he pointed with
pride to the fact that the various con
tingents came from the Pacific to the
Atlantic. He described how they seem
ed to represent a veritable arc, com
ing from California, the middle west,
Great Lakes, Ohio and New York and
in regiments in the Southern states.
why, you've got regular rainbow
said the war department official.
A regular rainbow" repeated Gener-
al Mann. That's the name we ought
to be called, Rainbow Division .
And so they have been called the
Rainbow Division. Exchange.
