What is worse those who don’t want to serve and protest to keep others from having to, or those who won’t serve but support sending others in their place? Not so much of an ethical dilemna now that there is no draft, but during the Viet nam War, this was a real question....
As I recall....the illegitimacy of the war wasn’t an issue until the draft started getting to the spoiled boomers who were enjoying the drug and sexual revolution.
Of course McNamara’s strategies and the bloody scenes on the 6 pm news didn’t help anything.
