How could a soldier be deferred from the draft during the Vietnam War?
You meant "man" being deferred from the draft. If he's already a "soldier" he's already in the army. How to avoid the draft? Stay in college, carry 18 units, maintain a 2.0 average, and you don't have to serve your country!
What were the problems with the draft laws during the civil war?
It was the North that had the problems with the draft. An affluent young man could pay a substitute to do his service for him. This was obviously bad for morale. But it also didn't help the armies much. Simply - who were these substitutes? Obviously, men who had been too young or too old when the draft was first announced, or men who had been dodging the draft, or men who had already been rejected by the army.
What is a draft letter?
During WW2, the local government formed a Draft Board who selected young men for military duty. They went through a selection process and sent out a "Draft Letter" informing them to report to for duty. In the 1960's and even today, a young man who reaches the age of 18 must register for Selective Service and he would be sent a Draft Card. When and if he was required for military service, he would be contacted and it could be with a letter.
What is the difference between draft resistance and draft evasion?
There "might" be a difference (splitting hairs) if one man flees to Canada (evading) verses another man burning his draft card (resisting). However, most people will probably agree that resisting/evading are both in the same category of draft resisting/draft evading/or draft dodging.
Why was the military draft controversail in both the union and the confederacy?
Like the Vietnam War, if a man didn't have the money to buy his way out of it, he got inducted (drafted). Wealthy men in the Civil War could purchase men to take their place in the military; wealthy men in the Viet War could hire expensive lawyers or go to colleges (draft deferrments). Poor men in either war had to accept the draft or go to prison.
