Charlie had a good record as soldier.

He believes the draft should be reinstated and 12% be black and the rest white. He claims too many blacks died in Vietnem-—well too many of both races died in Vietnam.

Personally I would like to see the draft reintroduced, but not for Charlies reasons and it isn’t going to happen anyway.

Young men should serve their country in some sort of way so they learn that our Freedoms are not free or fought for by someone else.

With the cuts in our military we have little chance of a draft.

Young black males were underrepresented among the Vietnam dead.

We don't have money enough to retain the current trained military. We are tapped out. The national debt is maxed. Charlie is doing his usual showboat.
