Yeah, a lot of draft dodgers here. You know, I don't think I would have been one. I was at that point where the Vietnam War just ended. I was still in high school. I missed it by two years. But at that point, I remember every day thinking whether I was going to serve or if I would have been in Canada. And my father did not want me to serve. My father was in World War II, did not want me or my brother to serve. My brother avoided Vietnam. He enlisted the Army Reserves. He was driving trains, Army trains, up and down North Carolina, but he never had to serve. But yeah, I mean, I don't know what I know. I'll tell you, what I know now about governments and stuff, I would not go to war. I mean, back in the 60s and the 70s, when we were kids, we didn't know any better. We didn't have the Internet. We were stupid. And now when you know what's going on, would you really give your life or something? I mean, if somebody was coming here, yeah, I would. I'm not going to go halfway around the world and kill myself or something.
