"do not get drafted into the Army. Join the Navy"

That's kinda funny. Not bad advice. Though in WWII the Navy and Merchant Marines were almost as dangerous as being in the Army.

The Merchant Marines suffered great loses, especially early in the war. The Navy was far safer than the Army. The Army Air Corps alone suffered more casualties in the war than the Marines and Navy combined.
