Col Ainsworth Leads Unique Record and Pension Office
Col Ainsworth, a former assistant surgeon, heads the independent War Department Records and Pensions Office created by Congress. He pioneered a car index system to clear 40,000 pension records and later expanded the method to military records, becoming a colonel unattached to any corps. The position, legalized by Congress and approved by President Harrison, rests on his unique holding and potential court martial action if removed.
