Hans was unable to unbend enough to see your original comment
to Frank's jab at "ham recruiting."

Nor Jim. Jim starts spazzing whenever I mention NPR. I had to laugh,
NPR was running a fund-raiser not too long ago and they were crying
about Air America stealing away donations that were rightfully
"thiers." NPR were here first. Hi!

Some objectors did amazing things, too:

Welp, Jim, I thought you were covertly trying to get us to find your
"service in other ways"

Why would anyone think that?

It's not about me.

Were you an objector? Did you serve in other ways?

Jimmie Noserve OBJECTS to anyone even thinking about deleting
the morse code test for an amateur license.

Jimmie SERVES the Code Cause by leading the charge of the
ultralight brigade, galloping his hearse into bottle, bug
paddles swinging left and right.

"Into the Valley of Dearth rode the four wondered..."

It's understandable that Jim doesn't want to discuss the circumstances
of why he didn't serve. But he sure is a interested in military
history. Knows all about it.
