Lieutenant H. L. Boatner has been relieved from duties at the school of the line in Fort Benning, and will proceed to New York to sail September 5 for duty in China.
I was curious about Lt. Boatner.  Wikipedia says that Haydon LeMaire Boatner did indeed go to China, and that he became fluent in Mandarin, and that he commanded troops in Burma in World War II.
