In this 1937 8mm footage, the 1/326 Infantry (Army Reserve) is seen at summer camp at target practice with machine guns, undergoing poison gas training, and general camp scenes taken by Lt. T. P. deTreville. They also take part in the re-enactment of the Battle of Chickamauga. There is also a photo of the officers of the 1/326 Infantry taken earlier at Fort Screven, Georgia. The group photo shows Jimmie Dyess, who in World War II won the Congressional Medal of Honor while a Marine Battalion commander in the Pacific.
