Middletown Mobilizes as National Guard Heads to Camp Whitman
Middletown observed the largest military mobilization in its history as New York State National Guard units depart from Wickham avenue for Camp Whitman and trains move troops toward Brownsville Texas. Crowds lined streets and armory doors as 180 soldiers marched to the O and W station led by the 24th Band, with families bidding farewell amid a wave of patriotism and urgent rail traffic coordinating dozens of troop movements.
