Camp Wilson, San Antonio, Friday Juyly 14, Special to the Elgin Daily Courier-
Two squads of our company are to be drafted into Co. A, of Dekalb. Of course there has been much comment on the subject of transferring but we are in the army now so the big stick rules. The squads will be picked today so the unlucky ones will know their doom. All of the boys were given tags to be hung around the neck for identification in case of war and believe me they look like dog tags and every dog has his day. It has been Co. E's day ever since we got here and some of the nights too.
San Antonio, Tex., July 17-(Special)
The following were transferred to Company A today by order of Col. Greene: Vincent Paulson, Benjamin Bone, Fred Barton, Arthur Carlson, Carl Bodecker, Bernard Betz, Michels Choblowize, Luttle Clifford, Harold Heath, Edwin Lamprect, Carl Mueckenheim, Gail Perry, Erick Quin, Edgar Quick, Fred Stewart, James Stephens.
Co. E 3rd Ill. Nat. Guard, Inft.
