I was never classified "4F", Len. I still have my draft card, btw. And your college deferment? marital? fatherhood? Actually irrelevant...the "draft" ended on 27 January 1973. :-) The last man to be drafted in the USA entered the Army on June 30, 1973. Jimmie isn't really old enough to be CONSIDERED for any "draft" prior to the beginning of 1973, I was 18 in April of 1972, Len. I registered and got my card. Still have it as a reminder of those times. Marital and parental deferments ended in the 1960s IIRC. I never had any sort of deferment or exemption from the draft. despite his self-portrayal as a "seasoned old ham." I've been an active radio amateur for 37-1/2 years. I've never described myself as a "seasoned old ham". You aren't even a beginner in ham radio, Len. A grade schooler with a brand new Technician license is more qualified as a radio amateur than you are. |
