That was not the case. They would be posted to nonmobilised units and, while continuing their civilian occupations or studies, would be required to undergo annual camp training, and also periodical out-of-camp training. The same rule applied to "those youths who had not yet been sent to camp and to those who hereafter would be called up by ballot or. attaining "*the age of 18.
