All able bodied (healthy) US males had to register for the draft (conscription). Registration was required before the Vietnam War.

Once a man reported, he was examined by military medical personnel, mentally tested (written test), and then put on a chartered bus to the nearest US Army Fort to commence Basic Combat Infantryman Training, nicknamed boot camp. His obligation to the United States government was two years of active duty and four years of reserve. Today, it's an eight-year obligation, if needed, via registration.

What should you not do before starting a draft composition?

Before starting a draft composition, you should avoid editing or critiquing your work too soon, as this can stifle creativity and slow down the writing process. It's also important not to worry too much about grammar and spelling errors at this stage, as these can be fixed during the editing process. Additionally, try not to compare your draft to others' work or set unrealistic expectations for yourself before you begin.


How come president Clinton went to college and not Vietnam?

Clinton's political opponents charge that to avoid being drafted into the Vietnam War during his college years, he used the political influence of a U.S. Senator, who employed him as an aide. Col. Eugene Holmes, an Army officer who was involved in Clinton's case, issued a notarized statement during the 1992 presidential campaign: "I was informed by the draft board that it was of interest to Senator Fullbright's office that Bill Clinton, a Rhodes Scholar, should be admitted to the ROTC program... I believe that he purposely deceived me, using the possibility of joining the ROTC as a ploy to work with the draft board to delay his induction and get a new draft classification."

Is either of Romneys sons in the marine corps?

No, neither did. Mr. Obama was too young when the Vietnam war was going on, and by the time he was old enough to serve, he was a college student, and there was no more military draft. Mr. Romney was old enough to serve, but he chose not to do so; he got a deferment so that he could go to France as a Mormon missionary.
