Definite orders for the members of Mil Sci 3 and 4 were announced last Wednesday in a special meeting at Shannon Hall. Captain Nelson Miles, Executive Officer and Adjutant, stated that Mil Sci 3 cadets would be called up in a body on June 3, while the fourth year men will wait at their homes for individual orders to report to OCS.
Graduating Naval Science students, who will be commissioned on Commencement Day, have already received orders, assigning them to report for jobs ranging from cruiser duty to sub chaser school.
Orders Come May 20
The orders for Mil Sci 3 are expected at Shannon Hall about May 20. They will be sent from there to the students' homes and will order them all to report to Fort Devens unless they have made special request to be inducted at their home Service Commands.
After processing at their induction centers, they will be sent to a Field Artillery Replacement Center where they will receive basic training. Those who complete their basic training successfully will be eligible for OCS.
Mil Sci 4 Waits
Since no special quotas have been provided to take care of the members of Mil Sci 4, these men will return home after graduation instead of being sent directly to OCS. They will be called up at their home induction centers in two's and three's.
These students may hold jobs until they receive their orders. They will be on inactive duty but must be obtainable at all times since they may be called up suddenly.
