AF Changes Draft Setup for Air ROTC
Washington notes nearly five thousand college seniors who faced Air Force enlistment or the Army draft now have a chance for Air Force Reserve and National Guard commissions as second lieutenants. The Air Force offered 4840 commissions to men with Air ROTC training who were previously deemed physically unqualified or unwilling to be pilots. The plan, announced by Assistant Secretary H. Lee White, stems from an Air National Guard decision to utilize these men. Recipients will serve three years on active Air Force duty, then three more years under National Guard control.
