Texas July draft quota reaches 908 as national total set
Col Morris Schwartz says Texas July draft quota is 908, the highest in four years, part of a national allotment of 17,100 for the Army. About 4,820 men will undergo Army mental and physical exams in July and the local boards have the quotas. Most selected will be volunteers under 26 and nonvolunteers ages 19 through 25, with safeguards against those with bona fide family responsibilities.
