California Militia and National
Guard Unit Histories
Woodland Home Guard
(6th Company, California Home
Guard)
The following article was copied from
the December 22, 1917 issue of California Home Guard News
This company is very fortunate to have as their Commanding
Officer, Major W. H. Curson, retired, N. G. C. For over twenty
two years he has served in the National Guard, Volunteers and
in military work, so that he well understands the needs of such
an organization. He is well assisted by Lieutenants Fox and Rawson,
and First Sergeant Hiddleson, all men of experience.
Drills are held weekly in the Woodland Armory, with a large turn
out. Davis and Dixon, nearby companies, also fall in with the
Woodland company, and this creates a great deal of enthusiasm.
Arrangements have been completed for
arms and uniforms, and the company will soon be ready for any
duty.What we need and want is the proper support from our State
officials
