Call-up Delays and Enlistment Ban Amid War Mobilization
The G.O.C Easter Command and Lt General Sturdee report plans to concentrate on those who have already received call-up notices. Those passing the second exam will be enlisted, while others on waiting lists or newly registered applicants await their chance. Recruiting experts note an 80,000 enlistment figure may have been surpassed, triggering an immediate ban on new enlistments. 5,000 to 10,000 men have applied to the Raster Command, with a lag between compilation and official figures.
