Nobody wanted to be the last draftee killed in Vietnam. In every war, there are those who can’t wait to go and those who will do anything not to. 70% of those who served in Vietnam were volunteers. The percentage of those who actually fought was much higher.
I’m not mad at anybody who didn’t go or did what they could to keep from being drafted as long as they did it legally. It’s not for everybody.
But I don’t think anyone should make fun of them unless they served themselves. If you (collective) haven’t been, you have no idea what’s like. The country wasn’t in danger. They didn’t desert. No problem.
How do you think he got a MEPS doc to sign off on a bogus physical?
If you had a ‘‘friendly’’ family doctor willing to sign a letter attesting to disability and took it with you to the induction physical, you’d get deferred.
Why were the troops deployed to Texas if the caravan is in Tijuana? Don’t hurt yourself defending the commander in chief on that one, you Trump apologist.
