No. 71-2002.
United States Court of Appeals,
Ninth Circuit.
June 20, 1972.

Richard F. Locke, Asst. U. S. Atty.  (argued), James L. Browning, U. S. Atty., San Francisco, Cal., for respondents-appellants.

Before CHAMBERS and BROWNING, Circuit Judges, and SHARP,* District Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
There is sufficient evidence in the record to support the finding that the notification of classification was not mailed to petitioner "as soon as practicable." 32 C.F.R. 1623.4(a).  The trial court found this prejudiced the petitioner.  Thus, we cannot find that it acted improperly in ordering his release from the Army.  See Knox v. United States, 200 F.2d 398 (9th Cir. 1952).

2
The order appealed from is affirmed.
