Resign or face mobilization urged for New Mexico guardsmen
New Mexico Adj. Gen. Charlton ordered married guardsmen with dependent families to resign if mobilization would harm dependents. He said it is a requirement, not a request, and adults must leave to support relatives. The note follows Washington talk of four guard divisions for active duty, potentially affecting about 500 guardsmen in the 120th engineers and 158th field artillery tied to the 45th division. Weather and local fair to unsettled conditions are also listed.
