 WEAR HIS INSIGNIA

Despite that fact he was able to take part in all the boxing tournaments and exhibitions given by his division, of which he was acclaimed the bantamweight cham pion.
 Shortly before the division turned it's face homeward Major General Ryan heard of the little fellows rec ord and May was sent for. He was told that when he returned to civilian life and if he took part in any boxing contests he would be accorded the un- usual privilege of wearing the Twenty seventh Division insignia.
