Proposal Met With Hostility In Pennsylvania
Defense Secretary McNamara drives an impasse over National Guard cuts as Pennsylvania and other states resist loss of 2,033 soldiers and 19 units from an 18,000-strong Guard. Governor Lawrence and Adjutant General Hay press for preserving units at strength, while Kennedy cites morale and readiness concerns amid federal pullbacks.
