I am surprised no one has mentioned yet the new delay in shipping of the P4, apparently, it was delayed to sometime in November. Sorry, I do not have the URL, but for those interested, it was posted on Steve's channeling thread.

Richard,

In this letter he states that he would accept the draft but not volunteer for the Vietnam war. He states that the Vietnam war was not a matter of national survival and that he was opposed to the war. Why do you find this so objectional?

The only thing I question in his letter is his decision to accept the draft because of his political ambitions when it appears that he actually should be resisting the draft to be consistent with his beliefs. This is recurring pattern in his life.

Remember, Robert McNamara expressed regrets for the Vietnam war and stated it was not in our national interests about 10 years ago. It was an unfortunate war. General Westmoreland was a butcher with his body count metrics.

I find nothing dishonorable in his letter. I personally thought the Vietnam war was wrong myself but decided if I had to fight I would have done so. Instead, I ended up building extremely effective airborne and naval weapons systems for the soldiers but I was never drafted.
