Sgt. Charles H. Belz says about 35,000 men who qualified for Aviation Cadet pilot training during World War II could be reinstated. The Air Force will expand the program in 1948 and allow reinstatement after a physical exam if unmarried ages 20 to 26 and two years of college. Those reinstated may bypass the current USAF aptitude test.
