RESERVE OFFICERS
USTBEPREPARED
rs Hours of Inactive Duty
Training Necessary for =
Summer Camp.

District Reserve officers who con-
template applying for active duty
training next summer will be required
to have 25 hours of inactive duty
training to their credit during the
current fiscal year in order to have
their applications for the 1888 camp
training favorably considered at Sd
Corps Area headquarters in Balti-
more. The War Department regula-
tions provide for this and the corps
area authorities have no control over
the matter.
These 25 hours of inactive duty
training may be attained in a variety
Of ways, but the most convenient
method is through the Army extern
sion courses. They not only accumu-
late credits for the active duty train
ing. but in addition they serve to earn
credits for local officers toward their
certificates of capacity for promotion
to the next higher grade when they
have served their time in their pres
ent rank and are otherwise eligible.
The extension courses are now so ar
ranged that in almost every instance
they parallel and cover the subjects
required in the promotion examina-
ton. When an officer has completed
the required subcourses and appears
before the Promotion Examining
Board. all he has to do is to present
his certificate and he is exempt in the
subject which it covers.
District officers inactive duty credits
for active duty training next July must
be earned between now and June 80.

partment will send limited number

tive duty with the Air Corps and who
