CapUin Haro d Banker of the Mer-. rick Unit, Home Defenae. bas tent the following letter to tbe memben: To my ComradfBa in the Merrick Unit: Having been appointed a lieuten¬ ant in the United SUtes Naval Ra¬ sarve Force,, I shall bave to ralin- quUh tlie command of this Unit Orden to this effect will doubtless be issued by the AdjuUnt General.
In entering the Federal Service I am following the example set for me by the membera of this Unit—an ex¬ ample which I feel sure will be fol¬ lowed by still more of our comrades. I need not dwell on ths regret which I feel in withdrawing from the pleas¬ ant associations of this unit. The friendships which we have formed in this service will endure throughout our lives.
It seems particularly appropriate at this time that we should reflect that we are all comrades in a great cause. The time which you have given to drills haa not been wasted. Your country is profiting by your efforts. Go ahead, and more power to you! Harold Bunker.
