ORC Office Here Is Ass igning Them To Tupelo-Corinth Units A tough new Army policy, aimed at getting aJl of its six year reservists back into Organized Reserve Corps training, has been started in Mississippi, Captain William C. Bruns, ORC instructor for northeast Mis~issippi, said Thursday . \ Si::-G-year-reservists we re defined by Capt. Burns as the postwar draftees who served 21 onths in the Army under the Selective Service Act of 1948 and were required upon discharge to transfer to the Enlisted Reserve Corps for a p eriod of six years. Capt. Burns said that his office was sending letters to all six-year reservists in the eightcounty northeast Mississi ppi area assigning them to Organized Reserve Corps units in Tupelo or Corinth and pointing out that the law makes it compulsory for them to attend all dr ill periods. The reservists will be assigned to Company B, 346th Infantry Regiment, Tupelo or to Headquarters Battery, 3040th Division Artillery, Corinth. Six y ear r eservists in Lee, Itawamba, Pontotoc, Tishomingo, Prentiss, Alcorn, Tippah and Union countie1:> will be affected by the letters. The penalty for failure to comply with the law requiring their attendance or ORC drills is trial in a civil court or an additional 112 months of active duty with J:1 • Army. The law, however, sets up certain exceptions to be , judged by Army officials. ' Captain Burns indicated that the drive to get all six-year reservists back into regular ORC training schedules was part of a state-wide effort ordered and directed by the Mississippi Military Distr ict headquarters in Jackson.
