C2 RE-EXAMINATION.

. A LAiRGE BATCH (Special Correspondent.) Wellington, Jan. 11. The C2 Re-Examination Medical Board will be in Auckland on Monday week, January 21, and it will be kept busy then examining First Division men until late in June. There are 5565' C2 men to be re-examined, and the rule is that not more than 00 are to be brought before tlie Board in a single day. The Board has to visit a great many different points, and a considerable part of its time necessarily will be occupied in travelling. Every C2 man who on re-examination is classed as CI is to be given orders to proceed to the CI camp with the draft leaving his group not earlier than fourteen clear days after his re-examination. Appellants will not be sent forward until their appeals have been disposed of by the Military Service Boards. It may be mentioned in this connection that the February and March drafts (36th and 37th Reinforcements) are already full, so that C2 men of the First Division who may be re-classed A and B1 will not be required to proceed to Trenttam before the April draft (38th Reinforcements). The men are entitled to fourteen days' leave between the date of re-examination and tho date of concentration in all cases. The number pf 02 men to be reexamined in the Taranaki district (Group S) is 350, and the Board will begin work on March 4. ]
