Thanks. I am serious. I have driven local recruiters crazy since 9/12/01. I offered to do anything to carry my weight again. I may fire off an Email to the White House.

May nothing gonna send W an Email now. Back in a jiffy.

It's a neat idea, but CONgress would have to do its usual thing before the regs change. Now, the service branches might do something earlier,and THAT is DoD or even Presidential directive.

Only the CONgress can do the draft, but the Commander-in-Chief can always tweak the recruitment criteria...

I've had those discussions several times, and they always go like this:

"Son, you've got five seconds to rebut me and explain why charging in the front door is a stupidass thing to do. Ready, go.."

I was in communications but I know my way around military and civilian flight lines. I'll pump gas, tow planes, wash windshields. I don't care.

Good luck Tame... one of the biggest mistakes I ever made was leaving the military (to get married). I should have made a career...

Even re a federal law? well i guess there's a way he could do it. that's a great idea. if we could acheive something without having to pass a bill...just go to the president, and have him relax some age restrictions during war time. Hmmmmm.

I have two good eyes (Praise the Lord) with my 9mm or 45ACP can do the same (moth) with left or right hand. With my scoped 270 I can group 1 inch at 500 yards all day.

Recently, it was announced that nationwide, the Guard enlistments were down, but regionally, we raised the bar in places. Kentucky was one such place.

I see Armed Services Committee meetings on this subject...
