Both were in the Airforce.
My dad got out when his hitch was up, but my uncle made a career out of it.
And both are proud of their service.
And do NOT ask them what they think of draft-dodgers, unless you want to hear an earful.
God Bless them both. My Dad was drafted during the Korean War, but never saw combat. He was an MP and feels the same way about draft dodgers.
