the campus of Lon Morris College in
Jacksonville has ordered the
revival of the Cherokee County unit
of his organization this year in
preparation for the state's
sesquicentennial in 1986. The
revival of the Cherokee County unit
of the Texas State Guard in the
form of a Headquarters Detach-
ment of Company C of the 703rd
Battalion of the 7th Military Police
Group has deep historical roots in
that the Texas State Guard is the
modern day version of the Texas
Militia founded in 1831. Revamped
and reactivated during World War
II and the Berlin crisis, the Texas
State Guard units replaced the
federally activated Texas National
Guard units and served as the
state's only militia force.
For further information on taking
part in this aspect of Cherokee
County's sesquicentennial
celebration, interested persons can
contact the 7th MP Group's Public
Affairs Officer, CPT Edmund A.
Bojarski at 586-2574 in Jacksonville
or 683-4688 in Rusk.
