In the present day? Sure, whatever. My degree is useless, so it's not like I'm leaving behind my future by getting weapons training and travel experience.

Actually, one of the most interesting questions about any scenario in which the draft were activated is how selective the military would be in terms of physical fitness. It's not difficult to imagine them rejecting something like two-thirds of those whose numbers come up, especially if they widen the draft pool by including women. Most Americans, even in their early twenties, do not meet the military's definition of fit for service.

According to an MI ANG app I almost started filling out, more than 15 uses of marijuana renders one permanently ineligible for military service, so honest people would also be disqualified.

Why are so many of you cowardly?  If our grandparents generation had the same attidute thay most of you have, we would have been screwed.
lmao

He's right you know.

Of course our grandparents had Tojo and Hitler to fight. Not wars in Iraq and Vietnam......

Depends on how old your grandparents are.
