I graduated in 73 I went down and registered for the draft and was told your on your way to be drafted okay I didn't get drafted but unlike those that went to Canada or used political help to get out of going I would of went because I am an American citizen and it is the right thing to do. I am pro American as it was until the first of this year now things are really screwed up I hope the genie can be pushed back in the bottle.
