He was deferred,reclassified 1A,dropped off the list, and blessed by a twist
of fate. Seems like he went to a lot of trouble to stay home with the girls.
And now he finally declares that he is not a draft dodger. I guess we should
believe him. Eh. Harry wouldn't lie, would he?
It was 40+ years ago - a whole different lifetime.

I'm not defending Harry, but get a freakin' life.

Nobody cares anymore.
I got out of the service almost 20 years ago. Yet Harry receives no flak
for his derogatory comments about same, whether mine or anyone else's.

Because it doesn't matter what Harry thinks.

It's as simple as that.

You served honorably, went above and beyond the call making it a
career and rose to Staff command level.

Why should you care what he thinks? He can make all the idiotic
comments he wants - he has no clue what you had to sacrifice or the
effort made to achieve your Staff level rank.

The only way that achievement can be taken away from you is for you to
take it away from yourself. If you react to his taunts, then he wins
and you look foolish.

I was just a grunt - dumbass Marine, but I would think that an officer
and a gentleman would understand when he's being played and just
ignore it.

Then again, maybe not.

Share the wealth, Tom.

I just did.


You're a great American, Tom.
