z. s. Army 0n Rhiz1e Can 7ake Field Fully Equipped
 Within Tluenty-f0ur Hours

COBLENZ, May 13 (by Associated Press).-A complete outfit, a minia, ture army equipped with all neces- sary services, capable of taking the field at "A hours notice without the assistance of any outside clements and one of the best military units ever organized in the worlds history of armies-such is the description that military men, allied, neutral and former enemies apply to the American army of occupation as it is constituted today.
 That the efficiency of the training system of the American forces in Germany, the excellence of their equipment and their faultless military bearing are generally recognized throughout Europe is shown by the fact that missnons from various coun- tries have either visited Coblenz during the past few months or have apllied for permission to come to this base and get first hand knowl. edge of how it is done.
 A few weeks ago the chief of staff of the Swiss army, accompanied by several officers, spent a week in Coblenz as the guest of General Allen, the American commander, attended inspections, visited the barracks, re. viewed the troops and returned to Berne to tell the officers of the Swiss army that the American army on the Rhine was the most up-to. date, the best equipped and the best looking military outfit of all the armies of the world"
 A commission from the Netherlands made similar visit and was equally favorably impressed and now the Fin nish government has asked permis sion to send commission to Co blenz

posed of the First and Second brigades would furnish the bulk of the fighting force.
 Their advance would be guarded against surprises and ambush by 300 cavalry and IS airplanes, which would do the scouting before the moving infantry. Three trained pilots are available for each plane in case of airmen meeting with accidents.
 One thousand artillery men, serving eight batteries of field guns, would be on hand to supply a barrage, should it become necessary.
 Three hundred men of the signal corps battalion would look after tele- phone and telegraph communications with the base at Coblenz. The rail way engineers battalion, which it receiving constant practical train ing on little branch line on the right bank of the Rhine which they are operating would, with the assist ance Of the motor transports corps, attend to the service of supplies of the expeditionary force
 The engineers First battalion would throw pontoon bridges over such streams as were traversed in the advance. Six ambulance companies, assisted by medical corps of 600, establishing field hospitals, would give first help to the wounded before their evacuation to the base hospital.
 Only one arm used in modern warfare is lacking-tanks. AS one officer remarked facetiously: "We have no tanks of any sort in this army"
 There is machine-gun section with every company instead of one to every battalion as formerly.
 Thus while the army of occupation in Germany numbers just a little more than half the electives of one American division on a war footing it is, nevertheless, real army in the fullest sense of the term.
