Oklahoma Guard To Be Enlarged
The Oklahoma National Guard plans a 20 percent enlistment expansion, adding about 1,600 enlisted personnel and several officers. The state guard, with 5,560 enlisted and 400 officers in 105 units, will grow as part of a nationwide preparedness program. Enlistment orders were expected from Washington within a week, with new officers drawn from the ranks. If war proceeds, the guard would be mobilized and moved to training camps or active duty within 10 days.
