Actually I think it has been wussified to allow for the co-ed training I hear they do. But that's just hearsay on my part because I don't know anyone who's been to boot camp in the last 10 years.

I'm of your generation and being of the opposite gender, was not drafted, so I have no first-hand knowledge. Just a question - when a draftee washed out in 1970, were they excused service or did they go into some other part of the military ?

They went home. Done. No more military. If it had been a year or so earlier, they might have let some of them stay.
