Army debates Second Division reconstitution at Fort Sam Houston
Major General Hagood says housing for an 80 percent US forces concentration in the Eighth Corps area would require up to 1100 million dollars for new barracks and facilities. Congress increased army strength by 46,000, with about 10,000 more troops added to corps. Possible reassembly of scattered Second Division units at Fort Sam Houston discussed, Camp Budis cited as housing option. Superintendent Kenedy, A. W. Cherry, re-elected for two years.
