Military Units
Drastically Cut
The number of military personnel
remaining on the Carolina campus has
just received the most drastic reduct
ion since it was first established here
in July 1943 according to an announce
ment by V-12 officials.
The total enrollment of the V-12
Unit which includes the Navy medic
al students stationed here now stands
at 867 according to the latest avail
able figures.
Of this number there are 451 Navy
V-12, 238 NROTC, 134 Marines and
44 medical students, but since further
transfers are pending it is likely these
figures may be slightly altered in the
near future and further reductions
may be noted. ,
The Marine Unit this term is com
posed almost completely of men who
have come in from active duty with the
Marine Corps and almost 90 percent
of these men have already seen over
seas service.
- Included in the present group are
men who participated in every major
battle fought in the Pacific theatre
and several of them returned only a
few weeks ago from active combat. Of
the approximately 100 men who came
here from other Marine V-12 Units
there were thirty-four men from Duke,
thirty-six men from Southwestern
Louisiana Institute and one man from
Georgia Tech. ( .
The new V-12 students were mostly
supply candidates and came in from
,s;n nther units, as did the approx
imately 50 new NROTC men who have
just reported here for training.
