Slatherring,
Don Meaker probably wouldn’t mention this in response to your recollection of your father, but I think someone should. Don “Very Strange AND Brilliant” Meaker (I’ve introduced him this way so many times it’s now his unofficial title) was commenting on the ‘work corps’ concept and NOT about a drafted military.

You SHOULD know that of all the people on this thread, Don, as a Ranger-tabbed former Commander of mechanized infantry company who STILL bleeds Olive Drab, would understand and respect your father and his service most of all.
– Warmest Regards
