New Guard Air
Unit Here Ready
For Field Service
Unit Expected to Be
Delayed Because Of
Lack of Facilities

While instruction will be stepped
up for the 121st Observation Squad
ron, the new air unit for the Dis
trict National Guard, in anticipa-
tion Of early induction into the
service, it was indicated that it will
be some weeks before the local air
outfit goes into the field for its year
of training. The formal orders for
the calling of the unit into the
service has been issued, but that is
merly a service routine, and does
not mean, it was explained, an i'm
mediate call.
The organization will have TO
await place for it to take its train
ing work, and, of course, under the
law, the facilities such as housing
and hospital must be ready before
the troops 60 into the field. They
are destined, at this time, to go TO
Columbia. S. c., where facilities are
to be constructed. such as a hangar
and other training facilities.
During the interim for the actual
induction the troops expect tc get
in a considerable amount of fying
experience and training with the
new plane which is on its way here.
/ This is expected TO be followed by
others.
The local Air Corps have been
designed as Army" troops: that is.
they are part of the 1st Army, and
are not attached to the 29th Ma
tional Guard Division. However.
/ they may be detached for special
/ purposes and assigned to division
/ for maneuvers and other training,
as they would in actual combat op-
erations, as the exigencies of a cam
/ paign developed.
/ 1t has been roughly estimated that
it will take six weeks to complete
| the facilities at the South Carolina
/ site Of the training area Of the local
| outfit, but as soon as word is re-
| celved that the new base is ready,
/ it is expected that it will be fol-
lowed Immediately with a notice
for the men to start for the train
ing area.
A group Of more than 300 selec-
tees have taken over the rife range
Of the District National Guard Al
Camp Simms, Congress Heights. D.
/ c. The troops are from among in
fantry units assigned to Fort Myer.
The troops are using the barrack.
buildings and are expected to be
there until the end Of the month,
when another unit is expected.
The big grading and drainage lob
which was carried on in the valley
where the target butts are located
is virtually completed, and It is ey-
pected that the bigger phases of the
construction work is to be inaugu-
rated in short time This will in
clude at least 10 brick storage build
ings.
1t was indicated that if the troops
are kept in the field. that some othe~
Government agency may take over
the buildings when they are COM
plete to house some emergency
activity. Although they are being
built for the storage of automotive
and other equipment. it was pointed
out that the Government has taken
over a number of such private build
ings in the city to handle Office per-
sonnel which has greatly increased
during the emergency.
AS soon as the troop units are
4 cleared from the range, it is expected
that civilian rife clubs and the local
/ police forces. including those Of the
District as we'll as the Federal Gov
ernment will want to hold their
! annual target practice.
