The last year they actually drew. My birth year was the last to actually register. I think they brought back registering at a later date again. Suffice it to say, had the hell hole continued unabated, very possible without Nixon and Kissinger, that’s the draft draw that had me at #8. Funny thing, I enlisted in 1980. Thank God, I avoided the hell you saw.
I wasn’t out in the field, so I didn’t see much. We did get lots of rocket attacks. That was not fun.
