More Guards To Be Called Within Year
Washington June 6 AP The army plans to beef up combat strength within a year by adding two or three more national guard divisions and forming some new regular army divisions and regimental combat teams. Gen J Lawton Collins expects two or three more state divisions to be federalized. The size of the army likely will stay near 1 6 million, with a June target around 1 552 000 to 1 600 000. The present force includes 12 regular divisions, six national guard divisions and regimental combat teams, with enough support troops to sustain extra units.
