Mel is just a draft dodger from Peekskill, New York.

No he isn't. Mel was 12 years old in 1968 when his family moved to Australia, and the draft ended in January, 1973, Mel was never in a position to be drafted, or to "dodge" the draft.

Gibson Sr. didn’t want any of his sons to have to serve-I think he had 6 or 7 sons.

Well Mel's father couldn't prophesy that in 1968 and he also has several older brothers.
