THE DETFENDER f 0 'X HISTORY OF CO. K 12TH INIFANTRY CAPTAIN TURNER M. CH.xMBL1ss, U.S.A. CMTC Company K , 12th Infantry, is a distinctive Pennsylvania unit, since all but three of its members are from the Keystone,' State. Besides being distinctive Penn- sylvanians, the students are distinctive Company K boys. Within six hours after their arrival at Camp Meade on July lst they were in uniform and pulling for their Com- pany. Company K , 12th Infantry, the parent organization of this CMTC unit, has a long record of brilliant service in the campaigns ofthe Civil YVar and the Spanish WVar. The home station of the Company, when not at Meade during the Summer Training Camps, is at Fort Washington, Md., on the beautiful Potomac River. A worthy child of an illustrious parent is Company KH, CMTC. THE REGULAR ARMY MAN JOHN W. TO'FTI.E, JR. On the military reservations of these United States and their dependencies there lives a man indispensable to our civilization. He is as much needed as the farmer and the business man, for without him neither agriculture nor trade could be conducted. He is as necessary to our nation's development as peace is necessary, for it is his duty to preserve peace and to restore it when it is broken. He is the most trusted, the most ef- ficient, and the most responsible of all the servants of the Republic, and he is called the Regular Army Man. . From the very birth of our country he has not only guarded its safety but has labored unceasingly for its progress. It was he who built the Panama, the Erie and the Chesapeake and Ohio Canals and developed the wonderful Los Angeles harbour. It was he who con- structed and operated the B. 8: O., the Northern Central, the Erie, the Boston and Provi- dence, the New York, New Haven and Hartford, the Boston and Albany and practically all our railroads, including the great transcontinental lines prior to the year 1855. It was he who explored the great Northwest under Lewis and Clark and who protected and assisted the pioneers and surveyed and mapped the territory. It is he who has linked Alaska with the Union by guarding its frontiers, building its roads and constructing and operating its telegraph and cable systems. It is he who has developed our immense steel industry and the science of interchangeable machine parts manufacture. It is he who has built most of our lighthouses and such famous public buildings as the Library of Con- gress, the War College, the Government Printing Office, the Agricultural Building, the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. It is he who has saved countless thousands of lives by discovering the cause of, and the cure for, many virulent diseases, epidemics, and pests. It is he, too, who has ever proved a friend in need to his civilian brother in time of serious civil disasters and emergencies. And he has done all this in addition to his generally recognized trade of warfare and preparation for warfare! In this day of national armies, what would we do without the Regular Army Man to train the civilian components of the Army? What would the National Guard, the Reserve Corps, the CMTC and the ROTC do without his patient guidance and his expert instruction? He is the keystone of our national defense. The pacifists and Communists are wise in directing their bitterest attacks against him. Without his support the whole structure of our military protection would collapse. ' Little considered, little known and generally misunderstood and unappreciated, he has been in the past and it is to the shame of our civilian population that such has been the case. The Great War and the citizen-soldiers have of late brought the civilians Page F ifty-two VnY-VAY1VaV.VaV1V:YnY1YnVuVaVnYAVuYAYnYN-WYJnYsYuY Y Y Y Y Y V Y V V V V Y VJ E M I C 'if V V V1Y.UsYA'AY1YuYNsYAYuVAVa'AV.VnY-717:V-VaV.VaYaV-YaY,Yn'uV.Y.V-Y-1.7.1il

0 THE DEFENDER I x and the Army into closer contact and we must see to it that our disgraceful indifference toward our military brothers in times of peace is replaced by the sincerest friendship and the most sympathetic understanding. In war and in peace the Regular Army Man is working untiringly in the vanguard of American civilization. No duty is too much for him to undertake, no service too difii- cult for him to render, no sacrifice too great for him to make for his country. He is not perfect, perhaps, but who among us is? His faults are merely the faults of civilians, while his virtues are distinctively his own. He is human and therefore fallible, but there is one thing that we must always bear in mind. VVhenever there is work to be done speedily, efficiently and Well, whether in War or in times of peace, it is upon the Regular Army Man that we can place our reliance in the present and the future as we have done in the past. As Joseph C. Lincoln says: He makes no fuss about the job, He donit talk big or brave, He knows he's in to fight and win, Or help fill up a grave, He ain't no Mama's darling, but He does the best he can, And he's the chap that wins the scrap, The Regular Army Man, The dandy, handy, Cool and sandy Regular Army Manln . in 112111 A Co1.oNE1.
