Enlistment Rush Signals Possible Draft Avoidance
The Army hinted that rising February enlistments may avert drafting college students. February first enlistments reached 20,900, above January’s 19,000 ten year high, more than double a year ago. Draft quotas in April and January were adjusted downward amid the surge. A Selective Service official said strong monthly enlistments below 30,000 could spare student conscription. The Army gave no reason for the upturn.
