Offices in Tents

Nerve center of the entire area is the Division Command Post where Gen. Sultan and his staff have their field headquarters. Here the commanding general, his chief of staff, Col. Norman A. Nicolai, Indianapolis, and all officers of the general and special staffs have their section offices set up in tents along a company street in a grove of tall pines. Indianapolis officers on the general staff, in addition to Col. Nicolai, are Lieut. Col. Paul E. Tombaugh, one-time adjutant general of ‘Indiana, plans and operations officer, and Lieut. Col. Fred C. Dyer, supply officer. Lieut. Col. Robert J. Axtell, who was obliged {to remain at Camp Shelby because |of illness, is expected to resume his |duties as personnel officer at the {close of the maneuver period, about {| Oct. 1.
