Old 9TH Regiment
Checked Gas attacks
and y on Drill HOn0rs

Il has been learned, through letter
from an officer Of the old 7th Regi-
ment, now the 10th Infantry, that of
the 1925 casualties that unit suffered
only 1SS were gas cases, which, the Of
hcer says, speak volumes for the
efficiency of the gas training and disci-
pliae OF the men. The THIS cas-
ualties we're as heavy as any other
regiments in the 27.h Division, but
the gas disablements of the others
were much greater.
The l05th Infantry reported 3O7
gassed men; the l06th had $50, and Pts
Of the 106th's complement were so dis
abled.
In addition to this record, the of
ficer tells how on January 4, at a
divisional review and competition, the
Old Seventh took all the honors Of
the show down" inspection. The
com petition included thorough in
specton of all men and equipment q
gas drill, and examination OF billets,
kitchens, storcrooms, transports and
animals together With the methods of
feeding and grooming the animals and
soldiers. The 107th outdid itself to
make showing
All the helmets were painted dark
green, with the divisional sigma in
front; all packs were measured until
they we're Of exactly the same size;
gas masks were hung at the same
angle, and there even was unity in the
manner Of lacing shoes AS for the
trans port, or field train, the animals
were groomcd until they shone like
plush kittens and the wagons were
freshly painted. There was no hest
fancy, the officer says, in the award Of
the highest score to the 10Th.
He added that the start for home
VAS scheduled to be made "any time
after January 10"
