No draft but I think that we need to have mandatory service...
Agreed with this.

Thanks to the Army, I have my A&P (Air frame and Power plant) License to work on any aircraft under the sun. Plus many other military schooling that actually is helping me in the civilian world. Got a GI bill that I haven't even touched yet. Price, Free....

As for the draft, I see none in the near future. Do to the fact that the war/wars are now under most contract.:nilly:

I would totally move if a draft started.

lol you draft dodger :ROFL:
 
I'm not a coward but I don't like violence. Fighting isn't my thing.. I don't agree with war, I don't agree with killing. I'd prefer not to die for something I don't believe in.

No offense to any army dudes or anything, I personally wouldn't serve in the army..

No honor in arguably pointless wars.

Which war right now is pointless?

Wars are fought for reason, the current Iraq and Afghan wars people might not remember that Congress approved both wars with over 90% in both houses of Congress. The alphabet networks doesn't even report on Iraq and Afghanistan anymore since Obama became elected. But America will now have permanent bases in both countries and have secured the 2nd largest oil fields in the world in Iraq. The oil might or might not be for America, but the supply for the world will be secure. Or should we have Russia or China have influence there instead of us?

Its based on the belief system and outlook of individuals. What i said doesn't necessarily reflect my viewpoint. Just sayin...
