Subject: RE: WAR.........
I am curious. How many of the people who are currently howling for blood and full-scale war are going to quit their jobs and enlist when the shit hits the fan. I am as pissed as anybody. However, if we are faced with full-scale mobilization, my 21 year old brother is going to be draft bait, and he is not the type who needs to be chasing veteran guerilla fighters thru the mountains. In that case, my only hope is that my 35 year old body (if some branch of the military will actually take me) will make it thru boot camp so that my brother may be deferred thru some sort of surviving son loophole. Kinda scary...
