Cohns Militia Record Under Review Next Week
The New York State Division of Military and Naval Affairs will release findings next week from a special inspection and review of Roy M. Cohns National Guard service record. Cohn, 27, chief counsel to Senator McCarthys permanent investigations committee, has been tied to alleged efforts to obtain special favors for G David Schine. The inquiry aims to answer press questions about his service, not to determine evasion of duty. Cohn enlisted in 1948 and rose from private to warrant officer and, in 1952, to a first lieutenant in the JAG Corps.
