You're right, we have no dispute. I'll take you up on the beer if we ever meet, but Round Two is on me!

Personally I don't think we should have a draft. It's not fitting for a country based on rights and liberty. People should choose to join our army on a voluntary basis.

>>>I mean no disrespect to you if you're a Vietnam veteran, but I based my feeling on the very unscientific method of personally speaking to vets of World War II and Vietnam. I have yet to personally meet a World War II vet who was drafted, or one who talked disparagingly of the military<<<<
I believe that from about 1943 onward(for the duration of WW2 anyway)-enlistment was forbidden and everything was done through the Draft.
