A June 1942 statute suspended all limitations on personnel strength in the military services.[174] Upon emergence of the “Cold War” Congress again authorized increases in military strength. In April 1946 the Navy and Marine Corps were permitted to increase the number of commissioned officers on the active list, and to maintain enlisted strength at 500,000 for the Regular Navy, and at 200,000 for the Marine Corps.[175] A Civil Air Patrol, to serve as a volunteer civilian auxiliary to the Air Force, was established in May 1948.[176] The Air Force was to establish, maintain, supply, and equip liaison offices with the CAP, and to detail Air Force military and civilian personnel to assist in training CAP members. Not dissimilar to the provision establishing the CAP as a civilian adjunct to the Air Force was a 1953 statute authorizing the President to employ the American National Red Cross under the Armed Forces whenever the President found it necessary to order such employment.[177] The Women’s Armed Services Integration Act of June 1948 integrated the women’s services as Regular units within the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force.[178] Four years later Congress authorized the appointment of qualified women as physicians and specialists in the medical services of the Army, Navy, and Air Force.[179] In 1950 provision was made for the five year enlistment in the Regular Army of 2,500 qualified unmarried male aliens.[180] Alien enlistees were integrated into established units with citizen soldiers and not segregated into separate organizations for aliens. NEGATIVE INTEGRATION It has become an axiom of democratic government that in time of emergency threatening the health or safety of the community or the territorial integrity of the nation, the objective of communal survival takes precedence over the desires and conveniences of the individual. The energies, wealth, talents of individuals may be conscripted in the national interest. Democratic governments also have asserted the right to constrict the range of permissible activities of individuals whose freedom, if unlimited, is calculated to exacerbate the emergency. Such limitations may apply to the population generally or to defined segments of it. The intensity of such limitations may be measured on a continuum ranging from precautionary detention to the relatively mild requirement that persons in defined categories register with the government.
