Thanks folks...Mark kindly let me know what the abbreviations mean.

REJECTION: My Uncle tried enlisting prior to when they let him in in Dec 41. In AUG 41 the ARMY REJECTED him for "SUGAR"...I thought that "sugar" just would have meant that his sugar levels were out of whack temporarily but fine the 2nd time he enlisted in Dec 41 so they accepted him that 2nd time.

A friend of mine said that they used to call diabetes "sugar" (I remember the term sugar-diabetes but never the single term "sugar")
We gave 5 diabetics in our family... including Granny (Ed's mom)

My "friend" told me that my Uncle was probably diabetic and that by the 2nd time he tried to enlist in Dec 41 that standards hand been relaxed for enlistment because the manpower was needed overseas...

Would they really have allowed a diabetic to enlist??? I would think fluctuating blood-sugar levels, or a diabetic being separated in war without his insulin would put operations and everyone at risk, therefore would not be allowed. Am I wrong?
