car pulled up when two men with army uniforms stepped out .
I got a letter in the mail telling me when to report. They gave me about 2 weeks but this happened in 1969. Things had changed.

When I was a kid I used to mow this lady's yard. She was old at the time, lost a brother in WWI, husband in WWII, and other family members in Korea and Vietnam. All drafted. She told me if the ever come for me to run, she had lost everything she had cared about to war on foreign soil.
