I was RA with a bunch of draftees. Would have been much better all RA.

Are you telling me the "greatest generation" had to be dragooned into the armed forces or they wouldn't have fought WWII. Pretty serious charge.

WWI was a farce that shouldn't have been fought.

The rich in the civil war could buy themselves out of that draft.
