In article , Tbone says...

I'm curious why you keep using the term "draft dodger" when the guy
was a reservist.


Dale's reply is much more exact and detailed than I could
reasonably do - so by all means read it. But the short
and sweet answer is that his family influence and money
purchased him an undeserved spot in a choice unit, to
prevent him from getting sent overseas.

This would not have been *so* bad if he had taken
good advantage of it and excelled when he was there.
Apparently he did not.
