Part 3. Exercise
Comment: Johnnie boy, get your head out of your butt? Many others than the rich received medical deferments during Vietnam. But I guess that fact doesn't support your idea of fair. By the way, Johnnie boy, how many aircraft did you crash during your Navy career? Oh yeah, how did you get into the Naval Academy? Was it your academics?
