Since the day this nation was founded every citizen has been obligated to serve when called. At one time it was the militia system,later it became the draft. In any case,the duty and obligation were there. Because some clown shirked his duty and ran to Canada out of fear, another had to serve in his place and may have died. I have zero respect for those who ran despite 20 years of propaganda trying to convince me they were heroes for resisting. I want nothing to do with them. I will not speak to or associate with one if I know of his past. The dead men of our youth deserve more respect than that.
