Defense Recommendations for Reserve Power by Secretary Woodring
Secretary Woodring, in his annual War Department report, urges expanding enlisted reserve to 150000 trained specialists plus training for 30000 reserve officers and 50000 youths. He argues a two week annual active duty for officers and a month of training for teens, creating a mobilization nucleus without building a full war machine. If adopted, the plan still leaves America perilously weak without stronger force readiness.
