In reply to Deb Williamson.

I also served in the US Army Reserve as a commissioned officer from 1971 to 2004 (33 years). One of my 2 daughters voluntarily and proudly served 3 1/2 years on active duty in the USAF after graduating from high school. I am very proud of her serving our country.

However, I a stand firmly against forcing our young females to submit to a military draft against their conscience and their will. No one asked the American people by popular vote to agree to this major change to military draft policy which was created by the Obama administration as a redult of allowing women to volunteer and be accepted into all formerly male combat fighting positions.

I do not want my grand daughters to be faced with having to register for the draft and being involuntarily drafted because of the incompetency of our President and Congress.
