Interment in Phoenix cemetery. community pointed with pride to "Company B" as "Sauk Center's own." Split Up But what has become of Comoany B under the present emergency? First, there were 60 draftees added to every 40 national guardsmen in the outfit. Most of the draftees came from out of the state some even from New York and Georgia and most of them had not the slight est affection for or interest in good old Sauk Center. Next, both guardsmen and draftees were appointed to com missioned officers ' and moved Into other outfits. And when congress made the recent ruling about sending men home who were over 28 and had served a year, more and more lot the original Sauk Centerites went home. Staff officers say the percent age of home-town men in the national guard companies and regiments may reach a low of 20 per cent by the middle of this winter. To Lose Regiment The war department an nounced recently the 41st divi sion will be streamlined. This meant an entire Infantry regt- ...cm win db aeni 10 some omer j aiiny iniiip. ii aiso means tne outfit's three artillery regiments (which consist of six battalions) will be changed over to make four artillery battalions. The two left over will also leave the parent organization. And if the present emergency develops into a war, there will be continued transfers and casu alties that will further alter the structure of the division. So, when it comes time to muster company B out of serv ice, there will be no point In taking it back to the state ar mory at Sauk Center because most of the boys would only have to run to the railroad sta tion and grab the next train home to Chicago or Boston.
