Selective service defects deemed remediable says officials
R L Sensenich and Dr Harvey B Stone of the American Medical Association state that rejections were for trivial defects that rejectees refused to correct. Keesling expects 4,000,000 more 4F classifications after reexaminations. Rowntree says standards were lowered to fill military slots and all rejections were important to replace by others. Doctors worked in shifts to cure remediable defects.
