"There are some matters you forget."

He mentioned all of those. There were enough deferments that if you didn't go to college, didn't work in a job that was considered essential, weren't married and if married and didn't have a child yet, the chances of you being drafted was pretty high. Especially at the peak. Needless to say, the higher your socio-economic status was, the more likely you were to be in a position to have a deferment, except possibly being married with enough kids.
