Beil Jr Nomination Confirmed Despite Senate Delay
The Senate action on Col George Beil Jr of the Sixteenth Infantry to brigadier general is approved after a delay blamed on process rather than merit. The War Department notes the nomination’s fit and cites continued consideration of retired officers for duties at posts and potential reemployment in wartime, while exploring broader officer employment plans and a push to test dehydrated army rations in Texas and Vera Cruz.

Navy detail law expands shore assignments for engineers
Navy officers view new naval appropriation as enabling the secretary to detail former engineer and naval construction officers to shore duties beyond prior limits. Commandants at Portsmouth and Puget Sound may now be filled by these officers, with broader assignments planned across industrial navy yards and related posts. The issue of Guantanamo development fuels debate over base status and funding, while repairs by Vestal and Prometheus prove the value of naval repair ships.
