In 1969, I graduated from college and got my draft notice. I joined the Air Force instead of going into the Army. Later that fall, I drew a 310 in the lottery and with that number I would never have been drafted had my timing been several months different.

I served my four years in the Air Force and met my wife, an Air Force nurse practitioner and got married. We celebrate our 40 year anniversary this fall.

So I have not regrets or complaints about how the bad timing of the draft lottery affected me so many years ago.

Excellent story. I’m so glad it turned out so well for you.

Congrats!
