Capt. Whitside Proud of Camp
Capt. WhitSide was very proud of
his camp. Other officers who came
out on inspection trips later, Sug-
gested moving to other sites along
the Huachuca mountains, but the
captain did not share anyone's en-
thusiasm for any site except the
one that he had selected.
Although by frequent raids and
rampages, Geronimo and lesser
Apache warriors showed their re-
sentiment at the white mans oc-
cupation of their hunting grounds,
the dispute of the camps right to
remain on its original site was one
of the least of Capt. Whitside's
worries.
Before he left the Post in 1880,
however, he was confronted by a
The Apache sentinel., 1943-07-16

property question that must have
perplexed him considerably. For
example, it appears that on Decem-
ber 81, Capt. Whitside was quite
disturbed over the number of set
tiers who are appearing upon the
reservation to pasture stock and
horses; he needed the grass for his
own animals and requested author
ity to keep them off. A fine "pinery,"
had also been located and from it
he was able to procure stockades for
winter quarters. The settlers were
one of the most disturbing elements
not only because of their encroach-
ment on grazing lands, but because
of other activities: they opened rum
shops, houses of prostitution and
became the rendezvous for snug
glers and thieves. One even had
the nerve to locate a homestead
claim upon the reservation and he
proposed to run them all off.
Hauchuca's C. o. Requests Leave
In February, 1880, Capt. Whit
side requested leave:
II have the honor to request that
leave of absence for one year be
granted me with permission to go
abroad and to take effect when my
services can be spared by the de-
partment commander.
"In this connection I would state
during over 20 years service, I have
only had a leave of absence for 70
days, which was granted me over
10 years ago, with the exception of
when have been absent sick"
In 1878 he was on sick leave to
Los Angeles for several weeks. Ac-
cording to the records he was suf-
fering from a broken leg at that
time.
On February 25, Capt. Whitside's
request for a leave was returned
approved"
Shortly thereafter he left Camp
Huachuca (four years after he had
founded IT'D with the approval of
the secretary of war leave of alb
sence for one year with permission
to go beyond the sea-" That was
the last which the camp he had so
painstakingly planned and kept 60

Camp Buildings Constructed
Between forays against the IN
dians, however, Capt. Whitside's
men got other things done. Extracts
from the report of May "a, 1879,
26 months after the camp site in
the Huachucas had been occupied
indicates the amount of construction
that has been done: Eight miles

NOTES FROM THE

Here we go starting brand new
thing; rendering. a column to the
Apache Sentinel" This is Go. "a"
536th ON. Service Bn. We havee
been in Huachuca six months. While
getting our basic training under
the supervision of Major Blackwell
of the 93rd Division, who left us
behind in February, we were well
blessed to receive cadre consisting
of End 1t. Robert H. Montgomery
who by his spectacular work with
us has received the rank of 1st Lit,
and deserved the promotion. He is
getting the full cooperation of End
1t. John Youngblood and End 1t.
Rex. E. Watts. Both have very fine
men and all have proved to us as
being efficient Officers and are
rated by us as the best faculty ao-
visors who have ever performed.
realize that you were kinda
bum-fuzzled seeing bunch of us
frequently and wanted to know just
who and what we are. I know you
are anxious to get better acquainted
with us. You can easily do just that
by reading the apache Sentinel"
First of all I'll introduce myself
to you as the reporter: I'm Private
first class Nathaniel Thomas from
Electric, Alabama!
Now for the others: We are indeed
proud to have a top-kick who is.
an old timer of the U. S. Armed
Forces. He has served a score and
some years in the Army. He has
proven to be one of the very best
of his kind; loved by all and loves
all also. That's the golden rule you
know so guess that is what put
him on top along with his music
teaching and numbers as well. He's
really 100 per cent with the 536th
Quartermaster. During your social
activities you may chance to meet
him. He is none other than 1St Sgt.
William H. Hudson of this State.
Give him a warm hand shake, he'll
appreciate it.
We also have with us a loyal
unique fellow known as Staff Ser
geant Lobelia Moore who is now
enjoying lengthy furlough at his
home in Nashville, Tennessee, with
his lovely wife, Hope the little lady
doesn't make S/Sgt. Moore an
AWOL victim.
Another Staff sergeant we would
like. for you to meet is Edmond
Peterson of Durham, N Carolina.
A swell place to live and swell
kid from there.
Here are some more non-eoms
who deserve honorable mention.
