Army To Call From
National Guard
_« e \ U * %.
WASHINGTON, (IP)—The army
has dipped into National Guard
V .
and organized reserve units for
the first time to order 7,500 indi
vidual junior officers to duty in
March.
And the navy has stowed away
plans for releasing reservists next
summer.
Those two actions were an
nounced yesterday as the army
also disclosed:
1. It will call up (it didn’t say
when) 100 Women’s Army Corps
lieutenants and captains.
2. It is ordering to active serv
ice 890 additional medical officers;
and 415 medical service corps of
ficers. These will report in two
groups, February 5 and March
15.
In addition, the army expects
to issue shortly its draft call for
the month of March. The new call
probably will not be less than the
quotas for January and February
—80,000 each month.
Draft calls through February
now total about 370,000.
The army said the 7,500 guard
and reserve lieutenants and cap
tains will report between March 1
and March 22.
The navy announced last No
vember 1st that enlisted reservists
recalled involuntarily would be
released at the rate of 5,000 a
\ - •
month and reserve officers at the
rate of 1,500 a month beginning
next July.
A navy spokesman said yester
day that plan has been announced.
He told a reporter the navy does
not know when or how many re
servists will be released. Naval
reserve call-up plans have not
changed, he said.
