Someone previously mentioned religous excuses to avoid the draft. I heard that Nixon, a Quaker, drove ambulances in WWII. So he was out in the front without a gun. He managed to serve his country without compromising his ethics. This doesn't excuse what he did in office, but it is an example how pacifist can serve their country in war.



Which is a perfect example for one of the questions I brought up earlier: is military service the only way to serve and give something back to your country?
