I always opposed the volunteer Army.  I enlisted in the Army in '64, during the heavy draft period of the Vietnam War and foresaw a period when the democrats and liberals changed American society to a point where a vast majority of young men gained the "right" to oppose the draft.  I remember that enlisting or getting drafted was a period of your life to "grow up and find yourself", if in 2 years or up to 6 years.  Today, a young man do not have to serve their Country, even for 2 years.  Today, only 1/2 of 1% of America's young men and women serve in the Military, including the other service branches.  We took an oath, "I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic".  Today, only 1/2 of 1% of some 350 million in active service have taken the oath.  Auwe.
