LOWER GRADE RESERVISTS
TO BE RE-EXAMINED. CHECK UP ON MEDICAL GRADINGS (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, November 17. All grade 2 men not in the Army, and all grade 3 men, both in the Army
and not yet posted, and all temporarily unfit men, are to be re-examined to check up on their medical gradings. This was announced at the Army Records Office in Christchurch this morning. Almost 9000 men in this area will be affected by the decision. In addition instructions have been received from Army Headquarters that all grade 2 men, grade 3 men and those temporarily unfit will be re-ex-amined every six months, except ’in cases where their grading is not likely to alter and a medical board can determine that they will remain in their present grade permanently. Some time ago it was announced that all grade 2 men in the Army were to be re-examined. This job has been pushed ahead and is well on toward completion. A number of the men originally-graded 2 have improved with Army life, and have been regraded 1, so that they are now fit for overseas service.
