Oh, shock, horror. He got deferments. How many others got them? Of course, Hillary wanted to be a Marine but her eyesight was too bad.

They stopped the draft for Vietnam a month before my 18th birthday. I have to say that I actually respect the intelligence of anyone older than me that found a creative way to avoid being canon fodder for Johnson.

In 1969, his father bought him 2-S, and now he attacks our POWs.

Getting drafted did not make one a patriot.

A lot of people got draft deferments. In fact, most people got them.

How did Bill Clinton avoid Viet Nam?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Very True. But he did risk his life for his country.

At 356 he never would have been called up. The medical and student deferments aren’t relevant in any case.
