Army Draft Quota Reaches 9000 For March
The Defense Department announced a March draft ceiling of 9,000 for the Army, the largest monthly quota since January 1962. The move follows a plan disclosed in November to boost overall strength by 20,000 through higher draft calls over six months, aiming for an Army total of 980,000. January and February quotas were 4,000, and December saw 6,000 drafted.
