Re: Various Veterans Issues
I was a bit surprised this thread was revived,BUT it is a good subject. I went into the Navy to avoid doing ground pounding. Going in I avoided the less than having a choice aspect of the draft. That and I wanted to be in the Navy like my Uncle. There is now a suggestion from the military that women should also register for the new draft.
See here.
There was a certain negative back blast from coming out of the military during the Vietnam war.
There was a perception that Vietnam Vets were dangerous,and unstable,so they were not as welcome in the work place.
