Articles of War debated and amended during war mobilization
The revised Articles of War, part of the army appropriation act, differ from the judge advocate general draft and Secretary of War recommendations after House and Senate changes. Provisions limit the Articles to active US service personnel, exclude retired and some reserve members, and reject wider hospital and civil-life extensions. Health facilities and base hospitals expand along the border with new aero units planned, aviation schools proposed, and the reserve aviation section authorized. A national guard mobilization plan prompts a general supply depot system and a board to oversee logistics for volunteers and guards.
