<<The Navy and Air Force and Guards of that time were the enlistment of choice for folks that were going to be drafted>>

I know. And honestly I don't hold it against anyone for joining any of the above mentioned branches. I don't really ever question if a person has served UNTIL I get the war hero line shoved in my face for the sole purpose of political gain. I mean Lets get real! John McCain had a chance to leave the POW camp he was in early. His dad was a high ranking military officer and McCain was offered early release. He said no and sat in that POW camp with his guys for something like another 3 years.
