When I as in the Army in the 80s, a high school drop out with a criminal record could join. (not me btw, I was MI)
I liked this concept because it gave unprivileged persons that had made mistakes in life a chance for a career and education.
Now, they are not allowed... well since Reagan.
So, say today there was a draft, it appears to me all the 'rejects' would be sitting at home while the qualifying ones for a better society would be sent to war.
Do rules change during a draft or am I wrong?
