Registration Forms are available from Post Offices, from sawmill offices, from Forest Officers, and from the Conservators of Forests at Auckland, Rotorua, Palmerston North, Wellington, Nelson, Hokitika, Christchurch and Invercargill. The Forestry Unit will consist of 306 all ranks. A unit truly representative of all districts is desired and completed registration forms should be forwarded as early as possible and must reach the local Conservator of Forests not later than Friday, June 21, 1940. Preference will be given to applicants between 21 and 40 years of age, but all applicants must be physically fit for service in any part of the world. Preference will likewise be given to single men, but married men with not more than two children may be accepted. The Unit will be composed entirely of forestry, logging and sawmilling personnel, and there are vacancies not only for fellers, breaker-outs, sniggers, track cutters, tramway hands, millwrights, sawyers, edgermen and engineers, but for storemen, log-measurers, tallymen, tractor and lorry drivers, horsemen, ordermen and all classes of general logging and sawmill hands. Key positions such as managers, foremen, etc., will carry appropriate commissioned and non-commissioned rank. Rates of pay will be the same as for other branches of the Forces.

In filling out Registration Forms, applicants should be certain to state specifically exactly what work they are now engaged on and in which they are most skilled, so that a selection of the best men may be made. Tractor drivers, for instance, should state whether they have had Diesel experience or only petrol; sawyers, whether they have had band or only circular experience; and engineers, what tickets they hold, i.e., stationary, marine, etc. The Army Department will arrange for enrolment and medical examination of volunteers after the applications have been considered.
