The notion of HAVING to volunteer to avoid the draft is a silly one. First of all, there's no evidence. Secondly, college deferrments were east for the rich and connected to get. You could also go in and pretend you were gay or crazy. You could also go to Europe or Canada or claim you were a pacific objector. There were lots of ways to stay out of the draft. You could even wound yourself if you were desperate.
