Montana father learns son alive after Korea prisoner report
Defense officials told Jake Kern of Hardin that Cpl. Henry H. Kern is alive and soon returning home after being listed as killed. Originally notified July 19 of his son's death, Kern had mourned for a month while the 25 year old soldier's name appeared on the 21st list of returned POWs. The confusion stemmed from eyewitnesses and official channels confirming the prior death notice, now corrected by a newer Adjutant General’s letter.

USAF To Drop 6000 Officers From Reserves
Washington reports the Air Force will release about 12 500 reserve officers in the next 60 days to make room for ROTC graduates. About 6 000 end service voluntarily, with roughly 6 600 officers to be dropped from reserves regardless of civilian life disruption. The service cites strength ceilings and ROTC needs as the reason.
