Major General William P. Will
son, the Adjutant General, has
issued a statement in which he
reported that a total of 315 addi-
tional men were recruited in the
Mississippi National Guard in
January during an intensive en-
listment campaign.
Gen. Wilson commented on
the enlistment program:
enlistment in the Nationa,
Guard is the ideal way for a
young man to satisfy his mill
tary obligation. The six months
training program allows him to
meet the active duty require
ment with a minimum of inter
ference with his education or
future plans, and permits him to
continue his educational pursuits
while meeting the balance of his
obligation"
