I f you are 18 to 34 (17 with parents’ consent) and a high school graduate, you can select your course of training in the Army or the Air Force before enlisting. Under the Army Technical School Plan you can specify two different courses that appeal to you in each of two fields. The Army will check to make sure there is an opening in one of the four courses you have selected, and a place will be reserved for you in that course. Then you enlist for 3, 4 or 5 years, and after passing the physical and mental examina tions and completing basic training you will be guaranteed training in your chosen field. The Air Force offers a similar opportunity in its Aviation Career Plan, giving you a pre-enlistment choice of 3 among the more than 40 USAF Specialist Schools. There is no better way to get a start in the great and growing field of aviation. EXTENSION PLANS FOR YEAR GIVEN Either plan gives you good pay, excellent training and a splendid chance for advancement in a real career. You can get full information, including lists of available Specialist Schools and Technical Courses, at your nearest Army and Air Force Recruiting Station. Miriam J.
