If there was a draft tomorrow, could you perform as a soldier?

If I was in the communications or logistics group then yeah. Combat group? Not so much.

I’m a young able-bodied male so yes. Would I want to fight? Probably not. However, we will never need the draft again. It’s all volunteer now.

Age cutoff is 26, but I think they'd take up to 35 if they needed.

If the draft involves a war in the middle east i would draft dodge

I would only fight for my country if it is being invaded

As far as OP's question, I would try, but I'd probably die pretty quickly.

Sure. A bad one, though. I'm far too old and have outgrown my sense of invincibility.

I shoot well, so I guess I could be useful as a sniper until they zero in on where my slowly displacing arse is.

Fighting wars is a young man's game. Politics and directing young men is an old man's game.

Um, yea, uhh... I don’t think I’d be called.

Now, my bodyguards? They’d do a heck of a job.

Well, the last one I was 5'7" and looked smaller. Things worked out OK for me, not everyone.
I believe you go to war to finish it, end of story, phuck this yes or no, period.
