In the last annual report from this department an attempt was made to illustrate the importance of a well organized Militia, and to briefly discuss its relations to the government, Federal and State. These trite themes have necessarily engaged the attention of succes- sive incumbents of the office I have the honor to occupy, since each has felt the radical necessity of public appreciation and support of all measures in a government which is essentially the direct reflection of the popular will. Though frequent reiteration of this fundamental importance of. the Militia has not destroyed its significance, it is not the present purpose to repeat or enlaI·ge tlpon the theoretical argu- ments presented last year. Since then it has been attempted to enlist popular consideration by practical tre!ttment, and to this end impor- tant reforms have been instituted dtlring the past year, which will be more specifically treated of beyond. -

Custer Stationed in Elizabethtown
Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer Stationed in Elizabethtown A battalion (two companies) of the Seventh Cavalry arrived in Elizabethtown, Kentucky on April 3, 1871. Also assigned to this post was a battalion of the 4th Infantry. Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer assumed command of the post upon his arrival on Sept. 3, 1871. Custer, the “boy-wonder”, was the youngest Brigadier General in the Union Army in the Civil War at age 23. By the war’s end, he commanded the Third Cavalry Division under General Philip Sheridan. Though he attained the rank of Brevet Major General of Volunteers, Custer’s rank in the Army line was only Captain. When the Regular Army was reorganized in 1866, he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel of the newly formed Seventh Cavalry. In 1871, the Seventh Cavalry had been on active duty, engaged in fighting hostile Indians on the plains, for five years. Their most celebrated victory was at the battle of the Washita in November of 1868. This strenuous duty had worn the troops gaunt and the Seventh was in need of a rest. The Federal Government at this time was stationing troops in many sections of the South. The intent was to control the Ku Klux Klan and Carpet Baggers and to break up illicit distilleries. As a result, the Seventh Cavalry was broken up and portions were stationed over various parts of the South. As Elizabethtown was not affected by anything more than a small amount of “moonshining,” the Seventh settled into a well-deserved respite from action. Cavalry headquarters was established on South Main Street and the horses were kept in adjoining stables and across the street from the site. -

The 34th “Red Bull” Infantry Division 1917-2010 Organization and World War One The 34th Infantry Division was created from National Guard troops of Minnesota, Iowa, the Dakotas and Nebraska in late summer 1917, four months after the US entered World War One. Training was conducted at Camp Cody, near Deming, New Mexico (pop. 3,000). Dusty wind squalls swirled daily through the area, giving the new division a nickname: the “Sandstorm Division.” As the men arrived at Camp Cody other enlistees from the Midwest and Southwest joined them. Many of the Guardsmen had been together a year earlier at Camp Llano Grande, near Mercedes, Texas, on the Mexican border. Training went well, and the officers and men waited anxiously throughout the long fall and winter of 1917-18 for orders to ship for France. Their anticipation turned to anger and frustration, however, when word was received that spring that the 34th had been chosen to become a replacement division. Companies, batteries and regiments, which had developed esprit de corps and cohesion, were broken up, and within two months nearly all personnel were reassigned to other commands in France. Reduced to a skeleton of cadre NCOs and officers, the 34th remained at Camp Cody just long enough for new draftees to refill its ranks. The reconstituted division then went to France, but by the time it arrived in October 1918, it was too late to see action. The war ended the following month. Between Wars After World War One, the 34th was reorganized with National Guardsmen from Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota. -

Brevet Brigadier General RENE EDWARD DEBUSSY
Brevet Brigadier General RENE EDWARD DEBUSSY by E d w i n N o r t h M c C l e l l a n A distinguished officer of Our Army, whose gallantry in the War of 1812 and Cix’il War, and efficiency in constructing fortifications on ei’ery coast of the I'nited Stales, was rewarded, in part, by the Department of War naming a fort on the Beach at Waikiki in his honor—Fort DeRussy. A E d w in N. M c C l e l l a n Waikiki question often asked is—"Who was DeRussy?" Here's the answer. Fort DeRussy on Waikiki Beach, not very far from the Outrigger Canoe Club, served as a patriotic guardian of Oahu and the Beach at Waikiki for many years. The Outrigger Canoe Club was about eight months of age when Fort DeRussy re ceived its name. The OCC and Fort always have been friends. The Fort’s big guns, placed in 1913, are not there in 1956. Aviation and Atoms-for-War ended their era. Hawaii has expressed an earnest hope that the Fort DeRussy Acres will be re published in Military E ngineer, VII turned by the U. S.
