Iowa National Guard

Roster of Officers of the Iowa National Guard

30 June 1918.

 

    In view of the fact that all members of the National Guard were drafted into Federal service on August 5, 1917 thereby completely depleting the Guard and it is uncertain what will be allowed in the way of re-organization it is impossible to anticipate what changes may be needed.

    It is recommended that an increase be made in the allowance for armory rentals to meet present day prices. These armories are to be used for the use of such new organizations as may be authorized by the War Department.
