ONE MILLIONTH KOREAN DRAFTEE Jewish Youth
From Detroit
u«-!iifif>ifi
Arthur Weinfeld, 28, of Detroit, assumes a pose familiar to thous¬ ands of draftees throughout the nation aa he la examined by Dr. Alfred Goldfaden, at the Detroit Induction Center. Making the pic¬ ture significant Is the fact that Weinfeld la the 1,000,000th inductee )9ince the outbreak of the Korean War.
To unassuming Arthur Weinfeld, a 23-year-old Detrolter who hold's a bachelor's degree in political science from Wayne University, fell the distinction of becoming the nation's millionth draftee since the Korean War atarted In June, 1950. His answer to the hubbub which surrounded his being named Mr. 1,000,000 was a simple, "Well, I guess I have to go anyway, don't I?"
The Army aa well as state and national figures who converged on Detroit to participate In the cere¬ monies left Weinfeld a tired young man when It was all over, and al^ gave rise to a bit of joking from his fellow draftees. But Weinfeld took It all in stride.
At Wayne, he \ya8 a member of Sigma Alpha Mu national social fraternity, of which group he was preaident. He was still attending the university, working on a mas¬ ter's degree when he got the call from Uncle Sam. It waa not ex¬ pected though; since Weinfeld had decided to end the uncertain wait and had volunteered for Induction. When he arrived at Port Custer he telephoned hia fiance, Rita Beltner. Informing her of his re¬ ception at the base. "The Army," he said, ^wants to make sure their 1,000,000th man ia snappy. They had me try on five uniforms until I got a perfect fit."
Much of the original excitement had subsided, but to Rita, her I fiance was atiU one in a million.
