No
I’m old, fat & out of shape
I would do whatever I could go help in other ways though

I want to say the draft is 18-26 but can be enforced up to 35.

If they start drafting people my age we are already in deep shite and we might as well go fight.

I'd need 6 months to get in better shape though. We'd need a middle aged boot camp.

The US military has no interest in a draft

No. I'm too damned old and beat up.

But since I WAS drafted & and WAS a soldier in infantry I suppose you know what the answer is if I were younger.

If there were a draft I’d get under the covers.

Thanks to the modern miracle of Peptides, I can perform in the fox’s hole.

So, AFFIRMATIVE THERE!!!
