REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

31 December, 1943 The Governor of the State of New York, Albany, New York: SIR:-Pursuant to Section 17 of the Military Law and the provisions of Section 42 of Chapter 78 of the Consolidated, Laws of the State of New York, report for the year ending 31 December 1943 is submitted. The 25th of October of the passing year was the third anniversary of the organization of the New York Guard. Since date of organization, 34,285 enlisted men have been separated from service in the New York Guard for various reasons, approximately fifty percent (50%) for the purpose of entering the armed forces of the United States where their preliminary training won for many almost immediate advancement in grade. Because of the absorp- tion of physically qualified men by the Federal armed forces, the recruiting of men for the New York Guard becomes increasingly difficult, but despite this handicap commanders have managed to maintain their units at satisfactory strength by enlisting youths of the age of seventeen and men thirty-eight years of age or over. There are also some men in the New York Guard with minor physical deficiencies which render them unsatisfactory for duty with the Federal forces but which do not hinder performance of duty as members of the New York Guard. Now that the three-year enlistment periods of most members of the New York National Guard have expired and there is no assur- ance that they will continue their interest therein after the war, the New York Guard becomes of increasing value since it offers the nucleus for reconstruction of the New York National Guard just as it did in 1919. It will, therefore, be seen that the New York Guard should no longer be considered merely as a temporary replacement for the New York National Guard, but as the founda- tion of the future New York National Guard and should receive every attention and consideration in the matter of equipment and training that it is possible for the State and Federal Government to provide. It has been reported that elements of the 27th Division (N ew York National Guard) spearheaded by the 165th Infantry (old 69th New York) captured Makin Island in the Pacific 21 November 1943 in conjunction with the attack on the Gilbert Islands. Colonel J. Gardiner Conroy, Commanding the 165th Infantry was killed a few hours after la:p.ding on Makin Island while directing an attack against a Japanese strong point. Majors Jacob H. Herzog and Edward T. Bradt, both of whom were inducted with the New York National Guard for active service in the present war, were [5] L_'_I 6 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL commended in orders for outstanding performance of duty in the capture of Makin Island. Letters have been received from New York National Guardsmen indicating that both individuals and organizations in the New York National Guard in Federal service are serving on practically all fronts in this global war. War Department reports received to date indicate that 1,842 officers of the New York National Guard have been promoted to higher grades in the Army of the United States since induction and that many enlisted men inducted with the New York National Guard have been appointed officers in the Army of the United States. The exact number cannot be determined at this date due to incomplete reports. On 12 October 1943 the office of The Adjutant General was moved from the Capitol building to 112 State Street, Albany, N. Y., where adequate quarters were provided on the second floor of the Standard building. The basic organization of the New York Guard being fairly well established, there were only a few changes in its composition during the year. Among these were the organization of Quarter- master Corps Motor Truck Companies attached to each of the five brigade headquarters. Four companies have been authorized to date. The organization of the 3rd Truck Company in the 3rd Brigade district will be completed before the end of January, 1944. Changes were as follows:

Armory construction has necessarily been curtailed due to Fed- eral priorities which preclude the procurement of essential mate- rials for new armory construction. However, this year it was possible to complete the new Field Artillery armory at Syracuse, New York, which was started in 1939 and is now occupied by the 2nd Battalion (less Company G), 3rd Regiment, New York Guard, thereby relieving the congestion in the Infantry armory in that City which now houses the Headquarters and five companies of the 3rd Regiment, New York Guard. During 1943 the War Department continued its policy of author- izing personnel of State guards to attend Federal service schools. The Second Service Command Tactical School at Hackettstown, New Jersey, was attended by 440 officers and 203 enlisted men of the New York Guard. The courses were of one (1) week's duration and consisted of classes for field and company officers and for non-commissioned officers. Three (3) officers attended the Provost Marshal General's School, Fort Custer, Michigan, a course lasting about three (3) months, and two (2) attended the Chemical War- fare School, Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland, a course of about one (1) month's duration. Authorization was recently received from the War Department to send officers to The Adjutant General's School, Fort Washington, Maryland, and the Engineer School at 8 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

Fort Belvoir, Virginia. It should be noted that while these service schools are operated at Federal expense, the transportation, pay and allowances of personnel attending from the New York Guard is borne by the State of New York. On 18 October 1943, Lieutenant General Hugh A. Drum, U.S.A., Retired, was appointed Commanding General, New York Guard, vice Major General William Ottmann, Retired at his own request. Colonel Christopher B. Degenaar, Infantry, Reserve List, was designated Acting Director, Finance Bureau, 1. September 1943 vice Lieutenant Colonel Burton H. Mull, Retired. Colonel Willard B. Donner, Infantry, New York Guard, was designated Acting Director, Distribution Bureau, 1 June 1943 vice Captain Thurber T. Hine, Retired. Personnel released from Federal service and assigned to the State Detachment, New York National Guard, consists on this date of thirteen (13) officers, one (1 )'W arrant Officer and :five (5) enlisted men. Of the thirteen officers,four (4) are held over from last year and nine (9) added this year. These officers, warrant officerand enlisted men plus the three (3) officersof the Inactive National Guard holding "key" positions in this officeare the only Federally recognized personnel not inducted into Federal service as of this date. The Naval Militia of the State is in a quiescent status, the personnel thereof having been ordered into Federal service since 1940- 1941 under their respective statuses in the United States Naval Reserve. Since the New York Naval Militia is not Federally recognized no reports regarding changes in status of the personnel thereof are sent to this officeby the Navy Department. However, New York Naval Militia officers and enlisted men are serving on naval vessels on the seven seas and from information received many of them were casualties as a result of having participated in various engagements 'Yith the enemy. The strength of the New York Guard on this date is sixteen thousand four hundred twenty-nine (16,429) including all ranks. A detailed report of strength is included under the report of the activities of the Personnel Bureau. The turnover of personnel of the New York Guard continues at a high rate largely due to entrance of both officersand enlisted men into the armed forces of the United States; through the "Guard" interfering with business or educational activities and the .dropping of enlisted men for failure to attend drills. Of 15,405 enlisted men separated from the service for all purposes during 1943, 2,844 or 18% were for expired terms of service; 5,798 or 38% were to enter the armed forces of the United States; 2,930 or 19% gave business or educational excuses as the cause of their requests for separation and 2,602 or 17% were dropped because of, failure to attend armory drills. The remaining 8% were discharged because of change of residence and other reasons not mentioned heretofore. Of the commissioned personnel 422 officers were separated from the New York G~ard during 1943. .ANNUAL REPORT OF' THE .ADJUTANT GENERAL 9

As an officer, in resigning or requesting transfer to the Reserve List, is not obliged to state his reason for so doing, it cannot be officially stated how many of these were lost for the purpose of accepting appointments in the armed forces of the United States. However, information gathered from other reliable sources indicates-a large percentage left for that purpose. To fill the vacancies created thereby and other existing vacancies in the New York Guard, 848 military commissions were issued in 1943 as against 1,582 in 1942. Finance Bureau Following is a statement of financial operations for the fiscal year ending 30 June 1943, including State appropriations for the general expenses of the military and naval establishment, expenses for armory maintenance and Federal funds allocated and expended during the same period : FINANCIAL STATEMENT-JULY 1, 1942-MARCH 31,1943

Bureau of Equipment and Supply The change of station of the New York State Arsenal Building from 64th Street and 2nd Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., to 355 Marcy Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., accomplished during November and December of 1942, necessitated complete rewarehousing and many building alterations to accommodate the various officesand to provide the storage facilities required. (See report Building Mainte- nance Section). A magazine 20'x30' was constructed of hollow tile at the north- east corner of the warehouse. Electric light and metal sliding doors were installed. Assignment of a Camp Quartermaster and two assistants to Camp Smith, Peekskill, N. Y., was made from personnel of this office. A 24-hour Armory Emergency Ration has been issued. (See Appendix I). Issue up to an excess of 20% over authorized strength in shoes, trousers, WOD, and coats, WOD, has been made to furnish the organization Supply Officers with a working stock and suitable size range with a view to eliminating the necessity for exchanges. In general, the supply of clothing and individual equipment to the organizations has reached the level where every enlisted man in the New York Guard is fully equipped with a set of summer, winter and fatigue uniforms with extra articles, with one exception, where desirable. The exception is that of providing an extra pair of shoes for each man. Due to present conditions, it has been difficult to locate sufficient stocks of a standard shoe for State purchase. This office effected distribution to all schools in the State, of Proclamations issued by the Commanding General, Eastern Defense Command, and also distributed the State forms for voters in the armed services to all Selective Service Boards in the State. An additional activity was the transportation of baggage and equipment of metropolitan New York City organizations to Camp Smith and return by Arsenal trucks and drivers (and those of the Camp Quartermaster). This involved considerable additional work on the part of our personnel; often on Sundays, and inter- fered to a degree with the regular routine. However, it was carried out without mishap and resulted in a saving to the State of some $1,800.00formerly paid commercial firms for this service. See Appendix No. I for property contracted for by State purchase which was received during the period January 1 to present date. See Appendix No. II for lists of property received from Federal government. REQUISITIONS AND SHIPPING TICKETS 125 Requisitions were received, registered and edited for replacements on proper credit vouchers. 653 Requisitions were received for initial issues and increases in strength, which were registered and edited for authorized allowances.

.An appropriation of $15,950 (Allotment Advice No. 18/48333) for the repair and maintenance of Camp Smith was received for the. fiscal years 1943-44, from the War Department. Federal vouchers totaling $7,656.33 for the repair and maintenance of Camp Smith were prepared and forwarded to The Finance Officer, USA. Thirty-one (31) Federal purchase orders were prepared for material to be delivered to Camp Smith. Priority forms were prepared and distributed for each order.

Inventory. Semi-annual consolidated memorandum receipts were prepared and forwarded each responsible officer on 31 May and 30 November. This was checked against the accounts of the responsible officers and discrepancies adjusted by Over, Short & Damaged Report if overcharges were found and by Su~vey if shortages were discovered.

Audit. (a) All accounts of the New York National Guard have been audited by Federal auditors and clearance issued. There are no outstanding accounts remaining for settlement against the New York National Guard. . (b) Federal accounts of the State Quartermaster were audited as of 24 May 1943 and 13 November 1943 by Federal auditors from the Second Service Command, Certificate of Audit #3322-43 and #3203-44, and complete clearance issued, there being no suspended accounts. A total of 48 medical items were ordered and received for replacement of items comprising the Regimental Surgeon's Chest, and Prophylactic Station Set, and shipping tickets were prepared on requisition for shipment of these items to the 22 Medical Detach- ments. As these articles were not received at one time, additional shipments had to be made as they were received in order to insure their delivery to the organizations prior to or during their field training period. Two hundred fifty (250) litters were received and issued on 26 October 1943, and shipping tickets were prepared to cover shipments to 22' Regiments and 3 Separate Battalions as follows:- This item was issued as part of the Medical Station as outlined in paragraph 16 of the Quartermaster Report. 9 per Regimental Med.

With the exception of the procurement of 36 Batteries AA-1 for use with the field telephone, there were no purchases of Signal equipment or supplies during the year. To date no Signal supplies or equipment have been made available by the War Department. Requ.isitions have been submitted and returned without action in that there is no supply available. During the 12 month period ending 31 December 1943, this department received 3,672 tons of material and equipment for distribution to the· Ordnance, Quartermaster and Medical Sections, ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL 23 and has shipped 3,617 tons to the organizations throughout the State. Freight shipments to the New York Guard required nine hundred fourteen (914) State bills of lading at an estimated cost of $2,024.77. A total of eight hundred thirty-tb,ree (833) express shipments were made to the New York Guard at an estimated cost of $581.80. Two hundred and forty-seven (247) Transportation Requests were issued in connection with the transportation of 17,158 officers and enlisted men of the New York Guard to Camp Smith, Peekskill, N. Y., for field training. Eighty (80) Transportation Requests were issued to the Camp Quartermaster, Camp Smith. One thousand one hundred and thirty (1,130) Transportation Requests were issued in connection. with the transportation of officers and noncommissioned officers of the New York Guard to the Second Service Command Tactical School, Hackettstown, N. J. Arrangements were made with Headquarters, Second Service Command, for the drawing of motor vehicles on temporary loan for the 1943 field training period. Twenty-three (23) vehicles were inspected and checked at the Army Depot, World's. Fair Parking Grounds, and turned over to the Camp Quartermaster. In order to maintain these vehicles while at Camp Smith, it was necessary to submit nine (9) requisitions to the Ordnance Service Command for various parts and equipment as became unserviceable from constant usage. A total of eighty-seven ,(87) parts were requisitioned and· received. On 6 January 1943, the State Quartermaster requested permission from the War Department to purchase subsistence supplies from the Army for the use of New York Guard troops performing field training at Camp Smith. Permission was granted by the Quartermaster General with the stipulation that supplies sold for the use of State Guardsmen on active duty would he in a quantity "not to exceed the Field Ration "A" for an equal number of Army troops on similar duty and subject to restrictions currently in force". Arrangements were made with Headquarters, Second Service Command and the Commanding General, New York Port of Embarkation, to requisition subsistence from Camp Shanks, N. Y., the nearest depot to Camp Smith equipped to handle such requisitions. It was also stipulated that ration point payment would he made to the issuing depot" Application with 'the Officeof Price Admin- istration, New York District Office, for sufficient ration points was approved and Ration Bank Accounts established for sugar, coffee,meats, and processed foods. Study of the Army menu prior to 15 April 1943, indicated that some components and recipes noted were not suitable for Guard usage, i.e., the large units or containers of approximately two dozen condiments and spices.issued by the Army for 100-men messes on a monthly basis; the numerous requirements for baked desserts which, it was felt, were too much to be expected of Guard cooks with limited e.xperience. Procurement was therefore initiated for 24 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE .ADJUTANT GENERAL

the State purchase of a quantity of condiments in small containers (4 or 8 oz) suitable for unit issue and the purchase of various prepared cake mixes, such as, Devil's Food Mix, Yellow Cake Mix, Biscuit Mix, Corn Bread Mix, and Prepared Pie Crust. The prepared mixes proved invaluable as a time and labor-saving item which any experienced cook could utilize. A monthly substitution chart was prepared by the Camp Quartermaster and issued to organizations in camp. The most difficult baked products requiring some degree of skill on the part of the cooks and in addition, requiring time and special preparation, were eliminated. The prepared mixes or a canned fruit was substituted. In view of State purchases and the fluctuating strength for the three meals on departure and arrival days, the Sales Officer at Camp Shanks agreed that it would be impractical to purchase the daily ration as issued and permitted the purchase of components up to the value of certified strength reports multiplied by the value of the Army field ration. The issuing depot, Camp Shanks, is approximately 56 miles, round trip, from Camp Smith. Convoy of from two to five trucks left daily at 7 :00 AM to make the pickup. Storage facilities at . Camp Shanks are not sufficiently large to accommodate reserve or surplus perishable stores, hence issues received one day from contractors were for consumption by the camp on the following day. On numerous occasions Camp Smith trucks arriving at Shanks at 8 :30 AM had to wait until contractors had made deliv- eries. These trucks loaded perishables and staples and then returned to Camp Smith about 12 :00 Noon, or later, with requisitions filled but considerable substitution made. Redistribution by the Quartermaster to organizations was made between 1 :00 and 5 :00 PM and Supply Officers informed of substitutions on the menu. In turn, Supply Officers making the distribution to their units, generally worked from 6 :00 PM to midnight and sometimes later. This caused considerable hardship on all concerned. At the commencement of field training, quantities purchased were based on the ArmY,standard allowing no percentage for loss, spoilage or shortage. Army messes organized on a minimum of 150 to. 200 men can absorb such spoilage with little reflection on the mess. However, the Guard messes, usually approximately 50 enlisted men and in some instances as low as 15 enlisted men, could not absorb spoilage or shortage without'seriously decreasing the issue to the men. When this condition developed, Arsenal stocks of canned staples, remaining on hand from the 1942 field training period, were shipped to Camp Smith to build up "light" meals or to he used when Camp Shanks made eliminations without substitutions. The Army mess is, of course, a continuous process, accumulating its stocks. The Guard mess was a 10-day affair allowing for no reserve or time to accumulate stocks. To remedy this situation, State purchases were made of those items considered inadequate and supplemental issue was made by the Camp Quartermaster to augment the Army issue. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL 25

Request was made of the Commanding General, Second Service Command for the detail of a non~commissionedofficer from the Bakers' and Cooks' School at Ft. Jay. A Master Sergeant was detailed to Camp Smith as an instructor on 6 July 1943, and remained on duty until the close of field training 30 September 1943., On the first training day of each tour, Supply Officers, mess sergeants, cooks, etc. attended a lecture in the post theatre by the Sergeant Instructor. At the lecture, stress was placed on food conservation, flexibility of the menu, butchering of meats and general food preparation. The Sergeant Instructor made daily inspections of the kitchens and the regimental warehouses and submitted detailed daily reports to the Camp Quartermaster which covered the following: Sanitary condition of messes Storage of perishables Food conservation Preparation of recipes Appendices follow.

Bureau for the Relief of Sick and Disabled New York Veterans Since the institution of the bureau many thousands of requests for relief have been received from sick and disabled, needy and unemployed, honorably discharged veterans of the First World War. These applications were thoroughly investigated and a major- ity of them were rejected due to the fact that they did not come within the meaning of our law. However, to date 12,456 cases have been approved of which 10,820 are active or have been' paid the maximum allowed under our law and 1,636 are in our rejected files for various reasons. 40 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

Under chapter 327 laws of 1943, the legislature appropriated $10,000.00 to cover relief to sick and disabled veterans of the Second World War. The total number of applications received 42 of which 39 have been approved for payment and 3 rejected. Each day there are new cases, some of which will be found ineligible and others will be approved for payment. The bureau is represented by a resident relief commissioner in each assembly district throughout the State .. The commissioner receives applications, investigates applicants to determine eligibil- ity for relief, prepares all papers, renders the periodical reports and returns, makes the relief payments upon approval of this office, and discharges the multiplicity of duties pertinent to his position. These gentlemen serve without pay; they give their time and efforts to the work without compensation and are rendering a service to the State and the needy veteran of inestimable value. Theirs is truly a patriotic service. Case papers submitted by the commissioner are checked and processed by the bureau, including vouchers for the payment of relief awards, for commissioner's necessary traveling expenses, and for expenses incurred by the commissioner in the performance of their duties, such as for stenographic and medical services. Book accounts of all monies appropriated for veterans relief and administration are kept by the bureau. In addition information pertaining to veterans relief is furnished to individuals, including commissioners and various organizations which entails considerable correspondence. .

Files, Mail and Distribution Bureau This bureau orders· all office supplies and printing for the Division of Military and Naval Affairs. During the year 1943 eleven hundred and ninety-three (1193) Army Regulations, Field Manuals, Technical Manuals, War De- partment Circulars, T'raining Circulars, Pamphlets and National Guard Bureau Regulations were distributed to the New York Guard. Over one thousand five hundred (1500) requisitions for forms and pamphlets were filled and distributed to Guard units. T'Yenty-three (23) General Orders, four (4) Bulletins and twenty- two (22) Circulars promulgated by this office and eight (8) Gen- eral Orders, six (6) Training Circulars of New York Guard Headquarters were printed and distributed. Eight hundred sixty- seven (867) jobs were run on the mimeograph. These consisted of specifications for the Bureau of Grounds and Structures, advance General Orders, Bulletins and Circulars of this office. 53,070 pieces of incoming mail and 58,766 of outgoing mail in addition to 631 pieces of Railway Express were received and distributed. The handling of the mail was greatly accelerated by the installation of a Pitney-Bowes metered mailing machine on 26 November 1943. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL 41

War Records Bureau During 1943 this Bureau handled approximately four thousand (4000) requests for information concerning the wars in which individuals and troops from the State of New York ·participated. Specifically, the information usually sought concerns the military records of individuals and questions of an historical and genea- logical nature. The time consumed in conducting searches requires from a few minutes to many hours and sometimes days. War of 1812 records number 75,000 with approximately 16,000 contingent expense award certificates. The information from 'these records is required for litigation in court arising out of settling estates and proving dormant bank accounts. Civil War records number approximately 475,000 and the information sought from these records is for the purpose of securing pensions, admission to soldiers' homes, affiliation of ;relatives of soldiers with patriotic organizations, grave marking, court cases, and establishing the activities of New York State troops in the various battles of this war. Spanish-American War, Philippine Insurrection and Boxer Expedition records number approximately 50,000. The information sought from these is mainly for pensions, eJltrance to veteran homes, hospitalization, and burial and grave marker allowances. Mexican Border Service records number 18,000 and the information sought in most cases is to prove that the applicant was in Federal service during 1916 and 1917. World War I records number 518,000 and the information usually sought is for the purpose of securing pensions, hospitalization, Civil Service preference, tax exemption, and emoluments to veterans. Requests are now being received in increasing numbers for information concerning records of World War II. This Bureau is still compiling World War I records by county segregation. World War Records Bureau This bureau processed New York State bonus claims which have been held in the suspended file due to the failure of the claimants to supply data necessary to approve or disapprove their claims. Over four thousand (4000) such claims are now in the process of adjudication. In addition, many inquiries were received from governmental, civic and veteran agencies requesting verification that the bonus was paid to certain veterans. Since the last report over five hundred (500) such inquiries were received and answered. One hundred and five (105) were from veterans who would have been eligible to receive this bonus had they filed a formal application prior to 1July 1932. 42 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

Report of Commanding General, New York Guard HQ NEW YORK GUARD STATE OFFICE BUILDING 80 Centre Street New York, N. Y. Hq NYG 319.1 (1943) 30 December 1943 Subject: Annual Report, 1943, New York (State) Guard To: His Excellency, The Governor of the State of New York: In accordance with the requirements of Par. 6, Regulations No. 80, I have the honor to submit the following report on the affairs of the New York (State) Guard for the calendar year "1943: 1. General The New York (State) Guard is completing its third year of service. The past year is noteworthy for the progress made in providing the troops with the essential items of individual equipment. In spite of the difficulties caused by the excessive turnover in personnel, the training has been progressive and with satisfactory results. The interest, enthusiasm and fine spirit of officers and men in their work has been most gratifying. The loyal and devoted service of the members of the Guard in preparing them- selves for .an emergency which might threaten the sovereignty of the State, as well as the welfare, life and property of its people, is a manifestation of that spirit of democracy and patriotism on which our nation was founded and of which our State may well be proud. 2. Strength The authorized strength of the New York Guard is 18,847 officers and enlisted men. The average strength daring the current year I / has been 16,769 officers and enlisted men. The turnover of personnel of the Guard has been, since its organization in 1940, and still remains, extremely high. During 1943 the percentage of turnover, due to call to Federal service and discharges for other causes, amounted to 81%. In several instances analysis of these figures discloses the astonishing fact that some organizations have had a turnover in their authorized and allowable strength of over 100% during the current year. This is, of course, a problem which has made great demand upon the officerpersonnel of the Guard. It is noteworthy, however, that the problem has been met with courage, intelligence and devotion, and that most officers consulted have expressed enthusiasm and satisfaction in the thought that their effort must have benefited our armed services, which is, indeed, a certainty. The matter of strength, enlistments and turnover is being given time and study by thes~ Headquarters, with a view to [45] 46 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL giving every assistance possible to the particular and important matter of recruitment. See Appendices Nos. 1 and 2 for statistical data.

3. Attendance (a) The average attendance for the Armory Training Period was 84.8%. See Appendix No.3. Since the Guard does not take disciplinary action by way of fines or punishment for absences from drill, other than dropping men from the. rolls for A.W.O.L.~ this showing is considered satisfactory under existing conditions because of the constant demands due to the war effort .. It is noted, however, that every effort, by way of transfer, is being made to arrange suitable drill periods more amenable to this condition, in order to save every trained man wherever possible. In upstate and outlying communities, the Guard is confronted with the problem of transportation-always a factor, but presently accelerated due to gasoline rationing. (b) Field Training during' 13 June to 30 September 1943 showed 86.9% attendance. Here again, in view of war production work, this attendance is considered very satisfactory. Many regiments of the Guard showed a noticeable improvement in their attendance at Camp. A commendable effort was made by all organizations. This effort is noticeably reflected in the general average figures of attendance shown in Appendix No.5, attached. 4. Organization (a) The 3rd Separate Battalion (colored) was mustered into the State service on 8 January 1943, and Company D, the fourth Company of that organization, on 29 January 1943. This Battalion is commanded by Major Myles A. Paige, with home station at 801 Dean Street, Brooklyn, N. Y. Additional units of the New York Guard authorized during the year were: (1) 5th Truck Company (Motor), Q.M.C., N.Y.G., station at State Armory, 1402 'Eighth Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., pursuant to \ General Orders No. 15, The Adjutant General's Office, 28 Septem- ber 1943. (2) 2nd Truck Company (Motor), Q.M.C., N.Y.G., station at State Armory, 29 West Kingsbridge Road, Bronx, N. Y., pursuant· to G.O. No. 18, The Adjutant General's Office, 22 October 1943. (3) 1st Truck Company (Motor), Q.M.C., N.Y.G., station at State Armory, 125 West 14th Street, New York, N. Y., pursuant to G.O. No. 19, The Adjutant General's Office, 26 October 1943. (4) 4th Truck Company (Motor), Q.M.C., N.Y.G., station at State Armory, 29 Masten Avenue, Buffalo, N. Y., pursuant to G.O. No. 20, The Adjutant General's Office, 5 November 1943. These units are now in process of organization, which should be completed during January, 1944. It is contemplated that the ~-1

REPORT OF THE COMMANDING GENERAL 47

Guard will have five of these truck companies, with one attached to each of the five brigades, under our present table of organization. For purposes of supervision, under permanent personnel, administrative control of tpese units is vested in the State Quartermaster. Each of these truck companies will eventually have 40 trucks, which will average approximately 10 trucks for the use of each regiment. This is a vitally important step in the organization and preparation for emergency plans (and the training of the troops in their execution) in connection with operation pertaining to protective measures in guaranty of State sovereignty in the event of civil disorders and disasters. The problems of troop transportation and hauling of rations, if presented simultaneously, cannot be entirely solved in upstate localities by the use of these trucks, due to distance factors in the transportation of rations from planned supply depots (both Army and State institutions). However, it is believed that it will do much to overcome many existing difficulties, and that it solves, partially, at least, a very serious problem. For the City of New York and the metropolitan area it is believed to be an entirely workable solution. Further data concerning these vehicles, their kind and number, and the basis and means of acquisition are covered under heading "ARMS AND EQUIPMENT," infra. (b) Important changes in our commissioned personnel during 1943 were as follows: Major General William .Ottmann, Commanding General, New York Guard, was, at his own request, placed on the Retired Liston 17 October 1943. He was succeeded by Lieutenant General Hugh A. Drum, on 18 October 1943. IJieutenant General Hugh A. Drum, who succeeded Major General William Ottmann, had, previous to his assumption of command of the New York Guard, commanded the First Army, U.S.A. Brigadier General Edward E. Gauche, 2nd Brigade, retired for age on 2 March 1943. He was succeeded, on 16 July 1943, by Brigadier General Anson C. Goodyear, who had been Colonel of the 17th Regiment prior to his promotion. In the interim Colonel Walter X. Stanton, 8th Regiment, acted as Brigade Commander . . Lieutenant Colonel James C. Mackenzie, Executive Officer, 17th Regiment, was promoted to Colonel on 22 July 1943, and succeeded to command of the 17th Regiment. 5. Training Considerable progress has been made in the training of the Guard in general during the current year. This progress is reflected in the individual efficiency of the regiments and separate units of the Guard,· in the method and manner of their response to training directives and in the initiative and leadership indicated in many organizations. While the training in general has been conducted pursuant to directives suggested by Federal authorities, neverthe- 48 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERA!:J less our own estimate of the training situation, based upon object- . ives intended to give priority (both in sequence and in purpose) to training as a State military force, has governed in our training mission. In general summation of this phase of the repprt, the Guard has earned the splendid cooperation, assistance and support of the Internal Security Division of the Army of the United States, which is most cooperative. It should be re:rp.arkedin this connection that never have the armed forces of the United· States worked more wholeheartedly in cooperation, conjunction and coordination with the State military forces than during the present emergency, under the existing and contemplated security plans of both forces. 6. Field Training The Field Training Period of ten (10) days was attended by all organizations of the New York Guard. Attendance figures and percentages are give!!in Appendix No.5, attached. Field training began on 13 June and ended on 30 September. The program of instruction was intense, and included training in those basic subjects (with emphasis upon that phase of training most applicable and pertinent to the mission of the New York Guard) which can best be given in the field. The outstanding features of field training were: (1) The opportunities presented for the firing of service ammunition with the rifle, shotgun and sub-machine gun. Due to insufficient ammunition (ammunition ,was extremely limited), no opportunity for individual proficiency existed. However, it did present an opportunity, at least, for demonstrating the capabilities of these weapons. (2) Combat principles and troop leading in small units, squad, platoon and company. (3) Tactics and control measures in domestic disturbances, civil disorders and riot duty. (4) Gas instruction; uses and capabilities of gas. (5) Demonstrations in scouting and patrolling and tactical training of the soldier, showing the right and wrong methods of execution, and the dangers of the latter. (6) Leadership training of junior officers and noncommissioned officers. Other phases of training included disciplinary, technical and tactical subjects of instruction with small-unit, two-sided, tactiBal problems designed to illustrate various phases of this training; night march; grenade instruction; physical drill; first aid and sanitation; bayonet training and current training films for incle- ment weather instruction. The Field Training program was carefully and well designed to fit the needs of officersand men of the New York Guard. The thought and study which were put into the preparation of this program were well reflected in the results obtained and in the satisfaction generally expressed by the personnel.

\ . REPORT OF THE COMMANDING GENERAL 49

Many units of the Guard conducted week-end field exercises at or near their home stations, both prior and subsequent to their Camp Smith field training, without expense to the State. This contribution on the part of officersand enlisted men of their time and the money to cover the cost of these exercises indicate interest, enthusiasm and high morale.

7. Medical Care and Sanitation The health of the command during field training was, in general, excellent. There were no deaths from illness or accidents. The number of accidents was small and, with few exceptions, resulted in but short periods of hospitalization. Minor injuries were satis- factorily treated in regimental infirmaries. There seemsto be no need at present to establish a Post Hospital for the care and treatment of more serious cases. Analysis of figures on a proportionate cost basis indicates that commercial or contract arrangement with the Peekskill Hospital is more econom- ical, just as satisfactory under existing conditions and doesnot warrant the establishment of a Post Hospital at this time. Our Headquarters Surgeon rendered important service in the supervision of all medical phases of the field training period and in the instruction of regimental surgeons in Army sanitation, inspections and general field duties. See Appendix No. 6 for statistical data.

8. Schools The SchoolPlan of the New York Guard includes officers,officer candidates and noncommissionedofficers,and specialist schools for communications personnel and for mess sergeants and cooks. The course of instruction follows that of the Army of the United States in plan and in scope insofar as it is applicable to the training mission of the Guard. The system of instruction governing schools is one employing the Army's method of Explanation, Demonstra- tion, Application and Interrogation. The establishment of this school system has proved to be of great value in keeping officersabreast of current teachings, in providing 'a source of officer material necessary to our constant and heavy turnover of officerpersonnel within the military age group and in providing the necessary specialists, both communications and mess personnel. Through the medium of the Second Service Command Tactical . School, Hackettstown, N~J., many of our officersand noncommissioned officershave had opportunity for specialized training in the' tactics and operations peculiar to the training mission of the Guard. The course is of one (calendar) week's duration. The officersand noncommissionedofficerswho have attended are enthu- siastic about the results obtained, and report very favorably of the benefits derived. See Appendix No.7. 50 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

9. Inspections At Camp Smith, during the field training period, Defense Dis- trict Commanders of the Internal Security Division of the Army, acting under orders of Second Service Command, inspected our regiments which are stationed within their districts. Reports of these inspections were uniformly satisfactory. Inspections at irregular and unscheduled intervals were made by battalion, regimental and brigade commanders, in accordance with directives of these Headquarters. In upstate and outlying districts covering split units, these inspections were more limited than in the metropolitan area of the City of New York, because of transportation difficulties. In such cases these inspection trips were made by private automobile, and· with some difficulty as regards time and expense. Pursuant to War Department orders, the annual Federal inspection of all units will be held during the period 4 January to 16~arch 1944. 10. Arms and Equipment (a) The armament of the Guard remains the same. The weapons include ten (10) rifles, five (5) sub-machine guns and forty-six (46) shotguns, 12-guage, per rifle-shotgun company. (b) Items of individual clothing have been increased to include one complete uniform' per enlisted man. However, due to wide variance in sizes, all units are not yet able completely to equip the entire personnel. Efforts are being made to accomplish this by inter-organiation transfer and by increasing, by 10%, the number of uniforms issued to each unit. (c) Other items of Quartermaster properly recently received are sufficient shelter tents completely to equip the Guard; shoes, service; shirts and trousers, cotton; underwear, woolen; gloves, woolen and caps, field, in sufficient quantity to equip each command. (d) In general, other items of supply are the normal issue to replace property worn out by fair wear and tear. The equipment situation has progressively improved. (e) ~otor Vehicles: The Commanding General has requested the Army to issue, on memorandum receipt, two hundred twenty- five (225) trucks, type 1%- and %-ton, in the proportion of three to one, and thirty (30) passenger cars. These are 1940 and prior- year vehicles which, due to present policy are .classed unserviceable for Army use. They are being selected with care by the State Quartermaster, and will be reconditioned at State expense, as agreed. I t is. believed that with careful selection and subsequent repair the State will have the benefit of serviceable and usable equipment, which, under prescribed supervision and control as planned, should last for some years. At the time of this report, thirty (30) vehicles have been received. However, further issue has been suspended by the Chief of Ordnance of the Army, pending new instructions conoerning the issue of vehicles to State Guards. REPORT OF THE COMMANDING GENERAL 51

11. Ammunition A deficiency of ammunition for range practice still exists. The amount issued by the War Department is insufficient for adequate instruction practice. Rifle firing of cal. .30 service ammunition had to be limited to ten (10) rounds per man during the past field training period. This amount is not enough to develop real proficiency. Sub-machine gun and shotgun ammunition, while also limited, was sufficient to permit men armed with these weapons to develop, in general, some improvement in marksmanship ability. It is hoped that, when the requirements of the armed forces are satisfied, the allowance may be increased. 12. Permanent Plant N ew York Guard Headquarters continues ot occupy the same office space at 80 Centre Street, New York, N. Y. Camp Smith. During the Winter and Spring of 1943, certain roads were repaired and trails cleared within the Manitou Moun- tain and adjacent area, to permit the limited use of this terrain for small-unit combat and troop leadership training. Due to the insuf- ficiency of funds available for this purpose, there was not enough area cleared to permit the assignment of this terrain to organizations on an adequate time schedule basis. This resulted in having to put some units through this phase of training with more haste than is normally desirable in instruction. Armories. The administration of the armories in Greater New York was taken over by The Adutant General, pursuant to the provisions of amendments to Sections 177 to 198 of the Military Law, on 1 July 1942. It is noted here that the recommendation made in last year's report, concerning modification of the restrictions placed upon the use of armories, now having been approved and acted upon, should add materially to the financial benefits so necessary to the internal administration and management of the organizations housed therein. 13. Administratwn The physical inventory of State and Federal property, begun in December 1942, was conducted under the supervision of brigade commanders. It revealed a satisfactory property records system in all organizations. Conferences were held by the Commanding General with brigade commanders, on matters of administration, supply and training, on the following dates: 23 January 1943 29 April 1943 29 October 1943 Regimental commanders of all organizations also attended the conference on 29 April. 52 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL

An agreement was reached between the Commanding General, New York Guard, and the Commanding General, Second Service Command, and approved by Your Excellency, which had for its purpose the voluntary cooperation of State military forces in the planning and execution of combined operations of Federal and State military forces in case of war or domestic emergencies threatening our war efforts. 14. Recommendations The following recommendations are submitted: (a) That the period of field training be increased from ten (10) days to fourteen (14) days. Under the ten-day period, at least three (3) days are lost for instruction time-the day of arrival, the day of departure and one Sunday holiday intervening. This reduces the actual time available for training to seven (7) days, and does not permit the necessary instruction to be imparted. It is the general consensus of opinion of these Headquarters, as well as of the regimental commanders throughout the Guard, that a fourteen-day period would provide greater opportunity for additional instruction, which would be of inestimable value in the training of our high percentage of Junior officersand noncommissioned officers required because of the annual loss to the armed forces. 15. Conclusions Since assuming command of the New York Guard, on 18 October 1943, .I have made a thorough study of the Guard, its elements, extent and purpose and of its organization, personnel and supply situation. This study of the internal administration and· economy of the Guard, while not at the moment complete, is nevertheless productive of an estimate of its capabilities. Deductions made from this study lead to the conclusion that, with some further planning presently in process, the Guard is preparing itself to accomplish any normal mission pertinent to the present emergency. This estimate of the situation will be a continuous process, designed to anticipate changes in our internal security mission and to meet . such changes with revision of plans where and when necessary. Ever mindful of the sovereignty of the State and the purpose of the New York Guard with respect to the protection and guaranty of that sovereignty, and in clear understanding of your wishes with respect to the unqualified accomplishment of this mission, I am sincerely appreciative of your cooperation, assistance and confidence. .
