I am 19 and most likely would be one those drafted if it was re-enacted. If the draft came back I would not engage in military service. Fighting for my nation is not worth risking my life to me. I would either be a contentious objector, leave the country, or find a way to not serve active duty. Do not get me wrong, I love America. But, I should not have to fight. My family has paid in blood for my right for freedom. The debt I own to my country has already been paid for me. My father spent seven years in Vietnam. I have an uncle that was in Korea and died in a POW camp. My grandfather served in WWII. One of my great-grandfathers and my great-uncle served in WWI. My family paid my debt to this nation for my freedom and no one else in my family should ever have to serve.
