    most definitely counts , see all of the comments above about the Vietnam era draft and missing/ not missing it .

    I take it that you have done your service?

    I feel that some manditory service [I would include Peace Corp, National Park Service etc.] would do a lot of todays youth a lot of good and solve some of the military's recruiting issues. Sorry and dangerously close to becoming political.
