: VETERANS
AND DRAFTEES
Rx MAI. THoMAs N. NAL

BY MAI. THOMAS M. NAL
One Of the keystones Of the
new reserve law is . program
which allows q certain number
Of young men to volunteer for
nix months active training fol-
lowed by seven and one-half
years Of reserve training.
The program is designed to
give those who haven't met their
@llitary obligation . chance to
al 70 and to serve the broader
purpose Of building q reserve Of
tfaknoA civilians which can be
HaIled 70 uniform In case Of war.
THE program has its linita-
tions. For example. only those
between II and 1914 may volun-
teer and the limit is 250,000 o.
year.
since the program depends ex-
clusively on volunteers. the lack
Of volunteers could sink it. You
men who could volunteer may
decide not to take part, but
rather to choose one Of the
other methods the reserve law
sets up to satisfy military obh-
cation.
-. Services Have Option
Further, the individual services
have the option as to whether
they want to put such q program
into effect TO build up their re-
serve force. And II they do, they
may limit the overall number
which may volunteer,
: The Army has indicated 1t
plans to use the program to some
extent. It plans to allow up to
100000 to volunteer between n
0etober and July 1885. It
hopes TO have between 5000 and
10000 Of them available to start
training In october.
: The Navy and The Air Force
don't plan to use the program
now. The Marine Corps plans to-
train only 5000 BY July ! and
the Coast Guard viii limit its
program to 1000 during the
szme petiod.
Also the services may pick
and choose from men who vol
llateer. Not all men who volun-
teer viii be taken into the pro-
arain because the services viii
want to use men with aptitudes
that At their needs.
The Army hasn't IS yet worked
out its method Of recruiting. The
probability Is that youn volun-
teer through recruiting ofices or
local reserve units.
Army TO Use Camps
Then youT be handled through
the regular examining stations
net UP for draftees and recruits.
The Army has indicated. how
ever, that youTl probably be
trained In regular camps. It has
enough space in camps now to
handle the first batch Of about
$4,000 without any strain.
The training probably viii be
in three eight-week phases. The
nrst eight weeks win be regular
basic, the second, crew and squad
training and the third. small
unit and short specialized train
ing courses.
After you complete the train
ing program you'll be required to
attend up to 4S weekly drills and
serve up TO II days Of summer
training. or, Is an option to
these. to serve 80 days Of sum-
naer training.
During the six months train
ing. you'll receive only $50 O.
month. Any allowance you might
