There is no dishonor for not having been called, but remember our brothers who were called and did not come back.

I forgot to say that I think it's cool that you kept this document so long and that you shared it with us surfers.

other obvious physical characteristics: head, arms, legs, walks upright. i think nowadays they call the draft "using the reserves" and "extended duty." 1968 BC, Before Carl....

John, would you explain the birthday number system, and why they never called.

Lucky you for not having been called. During the draft lottery my birthday number was 119, which WAS called while I was in college. After graduation I became 1-A and ended up volunteering for the draft to speed up the inevitable. Being in the Army for two years was the best thing that could have happened to me at that stage in my life.
