Yes, it's true. Like the 70's staples of flipped and feathered hair and flared jeans, indeed too it was only a matter of time before the military draft made a comeback.
Bill H.R. 163 was introduced in the House of Representatives on Feb. 3rd by Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) to reinstate the military draft. The Universal National Service Act of 2003, as it is being called will be a mandatory draft of all eligible and non-exempt citizens (including women) between the ages of 18-26 for two year service in either active military or reserve duty. The official justification reads as "..To provide for the common defense by requiring that all young persons in the United States, including women, perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes."
The United States Government is clawing at children of Vietnam parents, as if they didn't learn their lesson in the last go around. The Bush Administration has gotten itself into a sticky situation with "The War on Terror" and this maybe a prolong of their bunk ideology. This bill is currently in sub-committee, but I urge all U.S. Citizens of voting age to contact there Representatives and tell them not to vote on this bill when it inevitably comes up for a vote in the House, or pack your bags for Canada.
