Camp Travis Not Discharging 18th Cactus Division Men
Headquarters at Camp Travis Texas clarifies no men from the 18th Cactus Division or associated Camp units are being discharged now. Dozens of letters mislead that demobilization follows the Armistice. About 11 000 soldiers have been discharged mainly from the 165th Depot Brigade Independent Medical Units and Casuals, not from the division or camp units.
