I was 1A in 1968. I couldn’t get a job better than flipping burgers or selling French fries. I watched one out of 4 inductees get congratulated on becoming Marines when I was inducted.

What do I think about it? Was Jeb Bush ever in the military? He’s 3 years younger than me. Maybe he was chasing (what everyone is so concerned about Trump calling Cruz now) in Mexico. What about the rest of them? There is enough of that sh!t in my book.

Go bark that crap up another tree or stick it where the sun don’t shine, fella.

I recall the same thing, except where I was it was 1 of 3 went to the Marines in apr 68....I was in the enlistee group of 30 or so watching the every guy step back one step lottery.

When we look at our elected leadership these days, the number of those with any form of military service is now almost nil except for the dinoseurs.

When Clintoon beat two war vets, actually served in combat, Bush and Dole, I knew it was all over.

The woman parts description of Cruz, which DT made sure the whole crowd heard and media would pick up, is what I was comparing DT to in regards to serving and the discussion is ONLY about DT which is what he wants.

How does a President cover your back or take a bullet for you? By defending and UPHOLDING the Constitution.

Have a blessed day!
