Why The War Department Seeks Volunteers For The Regular Army

The War Department explains the push to enlist volunteers in the Regular Army. Congress created six components of the Army and the Regular Army remains on active duty to protect the coast, harbors, and entries, develop weapons, operate the Panama Canal, defend holdings, and administer insular possessions. Most soldiers are AUS members returning to civilian life. six months after emergency is declared, all will be discharged, leaving the Regular Army to carry national policy. Enlistment campaigns aim to maximize Regular Army strength, to free long-serving men and prepare an army capable of meeting future commitments, aided by new inducements like retirement after 20 years of native service, reenlistment bonuses, furloughs, and family allowances.
