Over-Age Officers In Army Receive Retirement Orders Mandatory retirement of over-age officers of the U.S. Army will become effective September 30, according to announcement from the headquarters at Fort Douglas, Utah of Major General Kenyon A. Joyce, commanding general of the Ninth Service Command. A recent War Department directive requires that officers who have reached the statutory retirement age will be relieved from active duty not later than the date in question. The statutory age is 60 for officers up to and including the rank of colonel; 62 for brigade-dier generals, and 64 for major generals, lieutenant generals and all officers of the Medical and Chaplain Corps. Many officers in the Ninth Service Command will be affected by this enforced retirement. Many of them are occupying key positions on the headquarters staff and in command of large posts, camps and installations where they are giving the government the benefit of their experience and judgment gained during long years of faithful and efficient services. To these officers, Major General Joyce has expressed his regret at their departure, pointing out that through their generous efforts and devotion, Ninth Service Command has accomplished its part in the BONDS OVER AMERICA In San Antonio, Texas, stands a mission fort of which is written: "Thermopylae had her messenger of defeat, the Alamo had none." 182 men gave their lives here in 1856.

Dogs Are Needed For Duty In Army's K-9 Corps War dogs, intrepid members of the Army's K-9 Corps, are rapidly making their weight—and numbers—felt in the Air Forces, according to Lieut. Roland John MacDonald, K-9 staff officer at headquarters for the West Coast Training Center, Santa Ana. "A number of our Army Air Bases have already received their consignment of these dogs and their handlers," Lt. MacDonald explained.

MacDonald explained. Within the next few weeks, all WCTC stations in the 11 western state command will be using dogs for duties varying from sentry to attack. Highly trained before assignment by the Quartermaster Corps from the two Army training centrees maintained for man's best friend, these canine specialists have already proved their value in the Army Air Forces. Many of them qualify as sentry dogs, accompanying guards on night tours of duty where their keenness of hearing and smell make for a bigger and better job of guarding air installations. Attack dogs, used to protect fenced properties and interiors of buildings, are equally praised by commanding officers who have witnessed their work. Dogs now being used to challenge the work of saboteurs and thieves were donated to Dogs for Defense and turned over by that organization to the Army.
