Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Adjutant-General of the State of North Carolina: For the Year 1892 When, in January, 1889, I assumed charge of this office, I found the State Guard to consist of thirty companies - twenty-nine of infantry and one of cavalry - of which two companies of infantry were colored. The whole force amounted in the aggregate to 1,459 officers and men. This force was in fairly good condition, but badly uniformed; as the Adjutant General says in his report, "But in the matter of clothing there is yet much to be accomplished. There is still a variety of dress prevailing - some of the companies having only the dress uniform, others only the fatigue." One of my first aims was to get the Guard in uniform, and I am glad to be able to state that before the expiration of the second year I had the whole Guard in regulation uniform, and at this time every company is supplied with both full dress and fatigue. I also found that in numbers we were very much below the average of other States, and I have steadily worked for the increase of the Guard, but under great difficulties. There is a false idea entertained by some that it is best to keep the number down as low as possible. It is said that it is better to have a small number of companies with more men in each company.
