Would the draft make your military more broad and diverse?

Of course it would! Watch the original film MASH starring Donald Sutherland and the MASH series starring Alan Alda...both were originally aired while the Vietnam War was still going on. Then watch them being interviewed on some Talk Shows about the series...they'll admit to it, "...we all knew MASH was really about Vietnam...but how could you say that with the war still going on..."

Nearly all but Hullahan(?) and Burns are draftees.

When Hullahan(?) says out loud at the dinner table one day, (referring to Alan Alda) "How'd you ever get in the army anyway!?" The Chaplin steps in and says in a low voice to her, "He was drafted!"

In the late 60's & early 70's, the Vietnam War was very much like that depicted in the MASH series.
