CLASSIFICATION PRoCEDURl

CLASSIFICATION PROCEDURE
Some time after he has regis
tered, each man win receive
from his local board a question
naire. The answers provide the
basic information which the local
board will use to decide whether
a man should be deferred or ex-
empt, or whether he should be
considered as available for i'm
duction for two years of service.
The local board also considers
information from other sources
such as employers, dependents,
government agencies and other
legitimate sources. But funda-
mentally, the law imposes on the
registrant the responsibility for
keeping the local board informed
of anything in his personal situ-
alton which might affect his clas-
sification.
Every classification must be
made on the basis of individual
status. There are no group clas-
sifications.
No classification is permanent,
and in some cases, expiration
dates are set. A man classified
as available for service may find
his individual situation so chang
ed that the local board may de-
fer him. And a man who is de-
ferred or exempt may not re-
main in that class after the con-
ditions on which the exemption
or deferment is based cease to
exist.
The classification assigned by
the local board determines, bas-
ically, whether a man will enter
service in his turn or remain
temporarily in civilian life. The
local boards are made up of un-
paid, volunteer citizens of the
community. They may not be
members of the military service.
