Bush readies DRAFT, reduces time to activate SSS from 8 mos to 75 days!

Advertisements [?]

This is the Selective Service plan for Fiscal Year 2004. Right now the draft system is dormant and would take 7 or 8 months to gear up. Bush is spending an additional $28 million next year to reduce that to 75 days by March 31, 2005! Means the DRAFT would be ready to go on June 15, 2005.

Strategic Objective 1.2: Ensure a mobilization infrastructure of 56 State Headquarters,
442 Area Offices and 1,980 Local Boards are operational within 75 days of an authorized
return to conscription.
