Launching Drive For Reserve Army Recruits A general call to the colours of the Reserve Army is heralded with the announcement that throughout Military District No. 1 the period from April 20th to 30th is being sot aside for a district -wide recruiting campaign to bring the Reserve Arnty units up to full strength. The co-operation of newspapers, radio stations, service clubs, churches and patriotic organizations of all kinds in the eleven counties of West- ern Ontario is being pledged for the purpose of emphasizing the vital role of the Reserve Army in the defence of Canada and of urging every able- bodied man in the District to fit him- self for service to his country in the event of a national emergency, which may develop as a result of grave developments in the Pacific theatre of war. Announcement of the 'Reserve Arany drive coincides with formation of the new Reserve Brigade group, which will form the spearhead or shock troops of the Reserve Army in M.D. 1, as in other Districts across Canada. Officer commanding the 31st Reserve Infantry Brigade Group, which comprises four infantry batt- alions and necessary ancillary troops is Colonel W. G. Hagerty, D.S.O., who has had a long and distinguished career of military service in Canada's armed forces. His appointment is in- dicative of the importance attached to the Reserve Army by National Defence Headquarters. At present he is busily engaged in setting up bri- gade headquarters as well as in dir- ecting the launching of the new campaign for recruits. Asked about the streamlining of the Reserve Army and the urgent call for recruits, Colonel Hagerty summarized the situation in these words: "We are in the midst of a serious military crisis, Canada requires ev- ery available able-bodied man to as- sist in defence of this country. The, Reserve Army offers the opportunity to those who are too young or too old to serve in the Active Army, to fit themselves for service to Canada in the event of a national emergency Which may well come at any time." "The drive for Reserve Army re Bruits will not interfere in any way with the raising of men ' for the Act- ive Army. The men whom we are seeking are those not required for enlistment in the Active Army. We are not asking them to give up their civilian jobs to become full-time sol- diers, but simply to make the sacri- fice of a small portion of their time to learn the rudiments of soldiering so that they may be equipped to de- fend their country in case of need. It will involve at most one or two evenings a week, 15 days in camp and a total of 10 days in week end exercises. "Many of the men wanted now by the Reserve Army will be found among those who were too young for the last war and are too old now for active service in this war," comment- ed Colonel Hagerty. "These men now have an opportunity to make a de- finite contribution to their country's defence. Many men in their late thirties and early forties who have found it impossible to join the active "rmy because of family or busirkss ties, can now do their part in de - re' ing their stake in Canada," Under the new Reserve Army Reg ',!'•lions recruits may be drawn from all men over 35 and under 50 years �t age of any medical category, A, B or C, while men from 19 to 35 may be taken if of C category, inasmuch as they are not eligible for the Ac- tive forces. Married mien from 30 to 35 of whatever medical category are also eligible for the Reserve. Then there are the boys of 17 and 18 who are too young for the Active Army but who are being encouraged to join the reserve. They will receive preliminary training designed to en- . able them to take their places later as trained reinforcements for over- seas.
