MARYLAND MANUAL. 48 ALLOTMENT OF TROOPS TO THE STATE OF MARYLAND 4BY THE WAR DEPARTMENT Infantry Division Troops 29th Division Staff Officers: 1 Infantry Brigade Headquarters 54th Field Artillery Brigade 1 F. A. Regiment (75-mm) 1 Medical Regiment 1 Division Air Service Special Allotment - 1 Infantry Company (colored) WAR RECORDS OF MARYLAND SOLDIERS AND SAILORS The Maryland War Records Commission having disbanded all rec- ords pertaining to the World War have been deposited in the Depart- ment and are now available for reference purposes at all times. Numerous requests are received for the service records of men who served in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Civil War, Spanish-American War and the World War. Every request is complied with, without charge, if the record is available in the Department, and when not available the applicant is advised of the best authentic source to seek the same. Only in respect to the records pertaining to the Revolutionary, War of 1812, and Mexican Wars are our records rather incomplete and the incompleteness is solely due to the methods used in those days of making and preserving records. CONTROL OF STATE ARMORIES. By Act of the General Assembly of 1922 (Art. 65, P. G. L., Md.) the State Armory Commission was abolished and the direct control of all State Armories placed with the ranking line officer of the State, to whom all applications should be made for the use of any armory, provided, however, that when applications are disapproved by the ranking line officer they shall be subject to review and approval of the Board of Public Works, the ranking line officer and the commanding officer of the unit occupying the armory concerned. In addition to the Fifth Regiment Armory in Baltimore City, State owned armores are now completed in the following towns and cities throughout the State: Pikesville Laurel Frederick Salisbury Hagerstown Centreville Cambridge Crisfield Bel Air Annapolis Elkton Pocomoke City Hyattsville Silver Spring Cumberland Kensington Westminster Chestertown Towson |
