Selective Service says mobilization would slow war prep
A GAO report quotes the Selective Service System assessing mobilization timelines and declines. It estimates 600,000 induction notices to field 100,000 soldiers in 60 days, with 100,000 rejected for physical, mental or moral reasons and 400,000 deferments or nonreporters. Budget and staff cuts since 1973 are noted.
