View Full Version : teh draftz0rs!
Opentarget 6th March 2007, 21:18 so here in america everyone my age is afraid the draft is gonna pwn them if Bush is like DRAFT FTW! (at least around my school) so i was just wondering, do you guys have a draft system in place like the SSS (Selective Service System) in your respective countries? and how would you react if you were drafted?
We don't have the draft, or any form of compulsory military service in the UK. The draft won't come back here again, but hypothetically speaking, I'd move to Ireland. If there was a serious need for soldiers, and a worthy cause to fight, for then I'd sign up, but not being forced to, and shipped off to another country where I can be shot at for something I didn't believe in.
Opentarget 6th March 2007, 22:25 yea seriously, at our school like 98% of the people here are all like "fuck war im goin to mexico and live in the sun" they dont care for anything about this country. the other 2% are in the JROTC and actually know whats going on
i mean when you have students bad mouthing military recruiters, thats just bad
but yea if like we invaded canada for a bacon shortage, i wouldnt go :D
HuggyBear 6th March 2007, 22:31 I would fight, but not die cause i would pwn those iraqui terrorists.
Zydee 7th March 2007, 02:55 new zealand dont have anything like that but if it came down to it id fight for my country and the commonwealth
Foxy 7th March 2007, 12:57 They do it in Poland as well, even though there's no need to have so many soldiers...
Oh, I forgot,we have Russia next door :) But in case of war, we will get nuked first.
In my humble opinion, dragging young guys and forcing them to join army is bullshit. They don't even care whether we are at school or not.
I'm gonna be drafted in a year. Well, something may change until then, but I don't feel like marching in a military uniform for a year (!) before ending my education.
On the other hand, you enter the barracks as a boy, you leave that place as a man.
MeanMach1ne 7th March 2007, 12:58 No Draft in Holland. But if there was draft, then we had an amazing 500 soldiers.. Or something like that:p
HuggyBear 7th March 2007, 13:07 I know back in WW2 they only drafted people that were not in college, so if I keep my grades up the chances are even smaller. Still say it won't happen, US public would be in madness over it.
Solid Snake 7th March 2007, 17:12 Im already joining the Army so it really doesnt matter, plus i'll be entering as a 2nd LT so :p
HuggyBear 7th March 2007, 20:11 Why such a higher rank?
Opentarget 7th March 2007, 20:53 ROTC or the academy, hes being commissioned as an office, im gonna go through airforce rotc and fly when i grow up so ill join as a 2nd lt too
Solid Snake 8th March 2007, 02:08 Im doing Physchological Affairs, AKA Interroragation
Supafly 8th March 2007, 06:38 I dont think canada has a draft system anymore and if there was well I would go because you get good pay and sweet benifites
Foxy 8th March 2007, 07:18 Do you get cookies?:cow:
Supafly 8th March 2007, 19:31 no but I think you get candy bars in the MRE or IMP (Meals ready to eat) or (Indavidual meal portions)
Solid Snake 8th March 2007, 19:34 Sometimes you get candy, it depends on what kind of meal, all the MRES have the same calories (wich iit has alot of for obvious reasons) The vegeterians have them most of the time. There usually just M&M's or a bar of choclate, now there is a pound cake that comes in alot of them but its messy and not that good.
Supafly 8th March 2007, 19:36 yeah snake is right and you have to becarful cause the TP is shaped like the bread and the bread aint all that great either
