Those Middle easterners seem want to make war against us. If they passed on Harry in his 20s, why do you think they would take him now? Most young men of even ordinary intelligence were not drafted during the heyday of the war against Vietnam. They for the most part were not "passed on," they simply were not drafted/instructed to report for a pre-induction physical. Those of us who were in college during the 1960s had a student deferment and as long as we maintained decent grades, the draft boards left us alone. Like most young men my age, I was never instructed to report for that physical; I was never drafted. The fact is, most of you who were in the service in that era were either drafted or signed up to avoid being drafted into the Army as meat and sent to Vietnam. The only one in this newsgroup who might have been shot at is Herring, and those shots were probably friendly fire because of the sort of asshole he is. Sorry, fellas. It was nice of you, I guess, to sign up, but I'm not impressed with your stateside, European, Korean, or shipboard service outside of direct combat. Believe it or not, Harry, you've told this story many, many times. I put it right there with your two trips around the Horn and your father's rowboat trip across the Atlantic. |

LBJ had just told us he was not going to send American boys off to fight a war Asian boys should be fighting. I joined up for the educational opportunities and chose the CG because I though they were the only ones with a peacetime mission. I did not want to be sitting on the bench waiting for something to happen. In 65 I volunteered to go to Vietnam twice and even tried to change my rate to Gunner's Mate after my first request was denied because they don't have FTs on small boats. All that did was screw up my FT3 crow. BTW the army did draft people in your position, if they had critical skills. My buddy was drafted within months after graduating because they wanted computer guys ... and he was married with a kid. Evidently they had all of the liberal arts people they needed.

A member of a KC draft board who worked at the paper told me all they were looking for were young men who could pass the preinduction physical with reasonable health.

Johnson really cranked it up. For example in december 1969 the first draw, 195 birthdays were drawn. That is 53% of all the numbers in the barrel. Assuming birthdays are fairly equally spread out across the year that was more than half of the eligible draftees. They did an alphabetical drawing to determine the induction order of those drawn by birthday. You know, they write this stuff down. |

Oh...you think draft boards thought beyond filling a quota. That’s a laugh. A member of a KC draft board who worked at the paper told me all they were looking for were young men who could pass the preinduction physical with reasonable health. Once they met their quota, they stopped looking. Period. Perhaps the standards were a hair higher for enlisted. Perhaps. So you had a thyroid condition back then too? Nope, just not stupid. In college, for b.a. and m.a., reclassified after that, not drafted (I was about 23 then), and got a high lottery number. Delighted. Math seems to say if you were 23 in 1970, the first year they had draft lottery numbers (actually issued in Dec 1969), you were born in 1947. That certainly does not match the rest of the story. You have alluded to being born before 1944 so you would have been 25+ when you got a lottery number. The draft was over if you were 26 and most 25 year olds were not bother by it either. I do not think harry is that old. I was born in 1943, and got a draft notice. Lottery only applied to 1944 and younger. I count as an enlisted soldier as I knew there was a draft notice with my name out there. Mom had moved and they sent it to old address. I was in NCR school when I took the draft physical, but got extended for,my re training so they lost track of me. When I contact3d draft board I had until April induction call to join service I wanted. |
