Hawkins enlisted in Co. B on Nov. 25, 1911, and served in that company until 1914. He was discharged "without honor" in March 1914, possibly over a dispute that he kept railroad passes issued to him without permission. However, he was appointed a Ranger Captain on Feb. 19, 1935, and discharged August 31, 1939. He also held a commission as a Special Ranger from 1934-1935. |
