Infantry Division 



The former infantry division of 

 nine regiments of infantry and 

 three of artillery has undergone 

 the most change. Five infantry 

 regiments have been cut out and 

 machine gun and trench mortar 

 battalions have been added, so 

 that the artillery strength has 

 been increased considerably. The 

 division, which once consisted of 

 twenty-eight thousand men, has 

 been reduced over thirty per 

 cent. The Army General's Staff 

 control brigades and regiments

6, Lieutenant Colonel (in silver); 7, Major 

 (in gold); 8, Captain; 9, First Lieutenant; 

 10, Second Lieutenant; 11, The Chaplain 



The work of the signal corps is ex- 

 ceedingly important. The men of the 

 wireless service follow the infantry in 

 their advances and keep up the com- 

 munication with the army headquarters 



Modern armies are complex organisms, 

 not so much because of the large organii 

 zation of field forces, as on account of 

 their many needs. Hence the necessity 

 for a reliable transportation system 



No matter of what 

 service or what 

 rank, every Ameri- 

 can soldier has an 

 equal chance of 

 winning the Medal 

 of Honor. It is 

 awarded by Con- 

 gress for distin- 

 guished personal 

 bravery or self-sac- 

 rifice that involved 

 the risk of life. It 

 is even more diffi- 

 cult to obtain than 

 is the Victoria Cross
