Wartime officers seeking a career in the Army may apply for permanent appointment at their current rank. Capt Eugene Safford of the Amarillo Recruiting Station cites a new Congress act increasing regular Army strength to 25 000 from 15 000.
Officers appointed under the bill will serve on an equal basis with regular Army members and may rise to major. New appointments cover second lieutenant through major, with limits by prior war service and age. Detailed rules hinge on actual or constructive service, not exceeding 20 years, or 45 for certain corps. Amarillo Recruiting Station provides guidance. Discharged officers can reenlist as first or master sergeant within 20 days of release. The rule includes officers, warrant officers, and flight officers.
