U. S. Marines Enlisting
Men Between 17 And 35
For the first time ssince the
present emergency has come into
effect the United States Marine
Corps is now enlisting men be
tween the ages of 17 and 35. Prior
to this Marine Corps was only
enlisting men who had reached
their 30th birthday.
This five year difference in age
is expected to bring many - men
into the ranks of the Marine Corps
Since the outbreak of hostilities
many men between the ages of 30
and 35 were told that they were
too old for the Marine Corps and
were turned down. All of these
men are now urged to come back
to the Marine Corps Recruiting
Stations and enlist.
The Marine Corps is also now
enlisting all former Marines who
have not reached their 35th birth
day and are not married. These
former Marines who have some
clerical experience will be retained
if they so desire, for , recruiting
duty. These Marines are requested
to report to the Raleigh Marine
Corps Recruiting station for re
enlistment
The Marine Corps Reserve is
now opert with unlimited vacancies
for those that desire to enlist in
the reserve. These men will re
ceive the same pay, promotions
and other advantages that the
Regular Marines receive. The only
difference being that the Reserves
will serve till the duration of the
emergency and then will be re
leased.
Rev. and Mrs. J. G. Benfield left
directly after the Union Christmas
service Sunday for a visit with
relatives in Caldwell county.
