Officers barred from national rifle and revolver matches
Washington March 20 riflemen nationwide await a House amendment to the army appropriation bill that would prohibit trophies and medals from being contested by officers of the Army Navy Marine Corps National Guard and related cadets. The rule would exclude West Point Annapolis cadets and all commissioned officers from national rifle and revolver matches, removing about half the top shooters from competition. War Department argues officers benefit their men by instruction and participation, noting teams in Camp Berrytax year had equal officer and enlisted representations and that officer involvement raises marksmanship values across the service.
