Biden plus many others slid by. It was not what you knew but who you knew if you wanted to avoid the draft during RVN or even if drafted if one knew a Colonel or above he could keep his son out of RVN and get him sent to Germany in the 60’s. I can state my father helped a DR.’s son get to Germany. He was a two year draftee with a US serial number.I never asked my father for a damn thing as I had issues with him. I did ask a neighbor, another Colonel, to get my basic training changed to another place. I asked only because I did not want to be around negative influences I knew. That is the one thing I always try to get across to young men. Get away from negative influences. They are not your friends.
