McCarthy accused them of clever dishonest and dangerous aims as the conflicting testimony over the Army row continued. McClellan called for immediate action on staff security clearances and a possible house cleaning while Senators Symington and Jackson backed him. Meanwhile at Quantico the Defense Department proposed drafting reserves to form a three million man pool for rapid mobilization with two reserve categories and four months active duty training, under further review by the White House and Congress.
