First Draft Call for 15 000 Men Expected to Be Made
The army announced a first draft call of about 16 000 men to be made around September 2 with selective service. Enlistees and draftees have a good chance of becoming officers, as the service doubles officer candidate schools and seeks GIs returning to college. The army plans higher monthly drafts later and may seek authority to draft doctors to ensure medical care for draftees. ROTC students can defer if they maintain high academic and military standing and agree to a two year active duty commitment.
