Army chief beige: no draft needed through 1987 says Marsh
Army Secretary John O Marsh Jr says manpower needs can be met through 1987 without restoring the draft even if new combat units are created. He supports continuing volunteer forces and notes pay raises must continue. He cites expansion plans, women in non traditional roles, and a 10 700 man increase next year to 786 000.
