Draft Resisters
As a veteran of World War II, during which I gave almost five years of my time to help make the world safe for such draft resisters as David Wayte, I get fed up with their unreasonable attitude of refusing to register. I also do not understand why such men can’t be drafted to do the work in the service as the WACS, WAVES, etc., did.
All divisions have a headquarters where the paper work is done for the entire division, clerks, typists, etc., and these men are never actually in the front lines of warfare. Why can’t draft resisters at least go into the service and do what the women did for them?
