Available Men Gone Through By July 1944
Buston Oct 28 Major General Hershey said by July 1944 Selective Service would have exhausted all registered men. He favored drafting those in the 4-F category over the 38 to 45 age group, warning that later calls would reach fathers as quotas press. He noted Congress requires taking all eligible men before fathers and that current induction methods are stringent. He estimated at most 1,000,000 men or one in six examined would meet physical standards.
