In the course of this survey it appeared to us that the
Office of Medical Services might better be organized along
functieetal lines. To improve the efficiency of applicant pro-
cessing and headquarters medical services, we recommend
the establishment of a Selection Processing Division and a
Medical Services Division. We also recommend eliminating
the position of the Special Assistant for Clinical Activities.
Since this would effect the over-all structure of the OM, a
final section on "Proposed Structural Changes" is included.
