* ‘SPARS’ TO
BE ASSIGNED
- TO OVERSEAS
Assignment of Coast Guard
SPARS to overseas bases will be
gin shortly after the first of Jan
uary, Rear Admiral Robert Dono
hue, chief personnel officer of the
Coast Guard, disclosed today.
Captain Dorothy Stratton, na
tional director of the Coast Guard
Women’s Reserve, is now in Ha
waii making arrangements for
SPARS who will be assigned
there, Admiral Donohue added, j
A pioneer in the field of Coast |
Guard aviation, husky Admiral j
^ Donohue lauded the service’s
current drive for 17-year-old men.
“It has been proved conclusive
ly that the energy and adapta
bility of youth, coupled with pro
per training, produces the best
best kind of sailor in the world,”
he said.
Asked if the Coast Guard con

tempates early demobiization,
Admiral Donohue said that in
keeping with navy policy, Coast
Guardsmen will continue to serve
until the war with Japan ends.
“Occasionally men over 38 or
those with physical disalbiities
will be discharged,” he stated,
“but each release will be based
on the case of the individual, not
as a part of a mass program. Ex
cept in the event of serious
physical disability, all those re
ceiving discharges must first
prove that they will be a greater
asset to the nation as civilians.”
Wherever possible, he contin
ued, men will be mustered out
at a discharge center nearest
their home. These demobiization
headquarters are being set up
now, he said, but will not be in
full operation until the end of hte
war.
“The war has proved conclus
ively that a strong navy is truly
our first line of defense,” he de
clared.
