Another example of the tremendous social and political evolution that occurred between 1969 and 1973 is the draft.

When I graduated H.S. in 73 not one of my schools 100 grads went into the military, not immediately anyway.

I did not know anyone who was drafted and, though I had to register for selective service, never had any concern about it nor did my parents.

I'm pretty sure folks your age, or even graduates from 1971, cannot say the same.
