Fred...

I was on my second tour overseas with Air Force when I received my draft notice. Does that mean I was drafted and did not volunteer for Air Farce????

Guess I was duped? Right? The FBI and police had big guns when they came looking for me as a draft dodger. Where was I dodging the draft???? Korea...

Paul was not stupid. He chose five long years in the Air Force vs two years in the Army.

At about the same time I decided on four long years in the Air Farce vs two short years in the Army.

Wow, Ron Paul must have followed your lead. I'm impressed.

Ole Ron does not say so but I suspect he had more than one deferments, wink wink.

He just neglects to mention that. Being of suspicious mind, I often wonder what else ole Ron seems to never mention.

For instance, going into Congress a poor man, coming out a multi millionaire. Checking his election financial statements are interesting, of course who cares?

Ole Ron was drafted for two years, volunteered for five, what a man give his all for his country. Now I feel bad, only doing four during wartime. Ron did his during peacetime, did he tell us that?

His family owned a successful dairy processing business near Pittsburgh, PA. He ran an OB/GYN practice most of his life, and blew all his spending money on gold. It's all a matter of public record.

Hardly peacetime, even though no war was declared.

Please get off Paul's ass and find a more worthy target for the vitriol.

Thank you.

His every two years financial statements do not support that.

Ron "invested" in gold mining, not gold.

Hey genius, what part of "Since the 1950s, a "doctor draft" had channeled physicians into two-year obligatory service in the Army, the Navy, the Air Force or the Public Health Service." do you fail to understand?

Are you on some mind altering drugs? You've been proven to be a liar, and here you are calling Dr. Ron Paul that very thing, where in fact it is you who is slandering him with lies due to some personal hatred you have for the man.

Why don't you get off your high horse and admit that either you were wrong, or that you got caught slandering him with malicious lies?

As noted previously, Paul served TWO YEARS in the Air Force as an active duty flight surgeon, and THREE YEARS in the Air National Guard, so you're wrong about his time in service as well.

Even if he had gone into the Army Medical Corps, he'd still be a doctor, not a grunt. If he had wanted the easy way out he could have just gone into the Public Health Service as a so-called "yellow beret".

It's these types of things that truly illustrate just how confused you are about MANY things, and that is why I'm really surprised that some people here give great credence to what you have to say about ANYTHING.

The Air Force takes ONLY volunteers. They have never drafted anyone.

So when are you going to retract your lie?

Air Force may draft doctors

Washington (AP) - The Air Force needs 250 doctors. And for the first time since 1957 the Defense Department plans to call on the draft to get the physicians. The Pentagon said Monday the draft call was made necessary by the failure of this year's intern group to volunteer for active duty, beginning in July 1961, in sufficient numbers to meet the requirements of the military medical service.

I have to say that it troubles me that Ron Paul, at least publicly, supports his son on issues that Ron himself has spoken out against all of his career.

I've also always been troubled by Dr. Paul's comments about 9/11 and the Truth movement when asked during his first presidential bid.

This isn't what I referred to, but here's another instance when he failed on it. 9/11 is my litmus test for politicians.

It was my opinion during the time of the elections that Paul could not agree with the 9/11 Truth Movement due to the stark reality that ANY hope of getting nominated would have been tossed out the window. HOWEVER, AFTER he decided to call it quits in terms of seeking the nomination, he COULD have shared his true thoughts IF he were on the up and up about it all.

Then again, the JFK assassination carried a strong message to any who would challenge those who call the shots.

Do you admit that it is VERY possible that Dr. Ron Paul was drafted into the Air Force as he states, since they WERE drafting doctors into the Air Force at the time?

Jewish kids seemed to have a pipeline into the Coast Guard if all of the above failed.

Imagine that.

Public Law 51 - JUNE 19, 1951, Chapter 144 - Statute 65, Page 75:
"Section 1. (a) This Act may be cited as the 'Universal Military Training and Service Act'."
http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/STATUTE-65/pdf/STATUTE-65-Pg75.pdf

Was studying that doc regarding Military Selective Service law in effect for the time period that Ron Paul would have received his Draft notice and one of the things I learned there is that the Coast Guard serves under the Secretary of the Treasury -- unlike the Army, Navy, Air Force and Secretaries thereof being jurisdictionally under the Secretary of Defense.

Another thing I learned there was that aliens applying for exemption/deferment from Military service were thereafter debarred from becoming a citizen.

The strangest thing I saw was at Sec. 2 , top of pg. 76, and had to do with the authorized numbers then for active-duty personnel strength:

Army: eight hundred thirty-seven thousand [837,000]
Navy and Marine Corps: six hundred sixty-six thousand, eight hundred and eighty-two [666,882]
Air Force: five hundred two thousand [502,000]

It's like the Navy and Marine Corps were intentionally not rounded up to 667,000 so as to display a 666 numerical prefix.

I'm sure he never claimed to have been officer-drafted

Watch the video, I did.

Ole Ron..."when I was drafted"...

Ole Ron was a Pied Piper, nothing else.

I did watch the video and even recommended a good WWII story he presented at 20:41. I heard him say in his speech that he was drafted. Possibly there's been a generational shift in the semantics of that word since the Korean War but I haven't found a Draft notice online yet specific to the Army only. Saw many generalized Presidential greetings, though, for induction into the Armed Forces. What's construed as draft-induced "volunteerism" by a draftee having some choice as to which of the Armed Forces they might serve in doesn't mean there was nothing involuntary about that except for the Army personnel who would have rather served elsewhere but couldn't for some reason.

Ron Paul may have chosen to serve in the Air Force because it was like a tradition with his family or he had friends and associates already there. Likewise, some people (draftees or not) choose to serve in the Army, Navy or Marines for those reasons, too, or just because that's where they prefer to do their duty (even though the Marines could be most hazardous). That he could have served in the Army for 2 years instead of 5 with similar rank and duties, thereby returning quicker to more lucrative practicing of medicine as a civilian (and without further Reserve-status ado about it) tells me that his induction-selection probably wasn't very motivated by money or prestige. Suggesting that he was something of a Draft Dodger by joining the Air Force doesn't merely amount to an undue personal insult of him by scurrilous "Stolen Valor tactics", of a sort, but is also a wrongful diminishment of every draftee in the non-Army sectors of the Armed Forces who similarly didn't desert to Canada or otherwise. So, please cease and desist for your own persona, too, from going that unreasonably far to bash him with expressed hatreds.

Near as I could determine, Ron Paul was called to service in 1962 during the October Cuban Missile Crisis and went into the Air Force in 1963. He was not sent to Vietnam but it's reported by Wikipedia that we had 16,000 combat troops there then (and as 17,000 by the Boston Review) -- much escalated beyond the advisors sent by Eisenhower. There were 122 American casualties that year and the casualty count had more than tripled in Kennedy's first year as President. It more than tripled again the next year and was much more than twice that for 1963. Kennedy is credited with planning to withdraw all troops by 1965 and 1,000 of them by the end of 1963 but only one platoon of 50 Marines was scheduled to be removed. [1963 in the Vietnam War - Wikipedia]. Ron Paul served as needed during a time of war and one that went from bad to worse during his years of service. Where he was assigned was the Military's choice.

Edited sentences 1 and 2 of paragraph 2 + capitalization.

GL, I've already found and posted several references regarding doctors being drafted into the Air Force, Army, and Navy medical services during both the Korean and Vietnam wars.

Apparently there was also an option to volunteer into the Public Health Service; those folks were named "yellow berets", assumingly due to the implication that they were "yellow" for avoiding military service.

Yep.

But what it boils down to is that the Air Force WAS in fact drafting doctors during the time period Ron Paul states he was drafted, contrary to Cyni's erroneous claims that they've NEVER drafted ANYONE, and there's no reason to doubt that Ron Paul was in fact drafted into the Air Force as a flight surgeon.

Yes, that's clearly evident now, I'd say, with the constructive source you provided at #27 and other such info on the subject.

contrary to Cyni's erroneous claims that they've NEVER drafted ANYONE,

Human error, it does still tend to happen much but, even so, I wouldn't want to become a robot. Considering the persuasiveness of your assistive link that may have prompted him to confirm that data satisfactorily to his specs, then reevaluate the matter and considering, also, how much he unrepentantly loathes Ron Paul, I think he probably stood in correction to the very best of his ability at #30, as far as these soon subsequent acknowledgement-excerpts go:

There is a quirk in the draft law.

Medical doctors could be drafted back then,

Under current law medical people, in case of national emergency, are really in peril. The law allows the military to call from a current list, doctors, surgeons, nurses, NPs PAs and even paramedics.

All is based on specialty and age, doctors I believe are under the gun until age 60, the others at lesser ages.

and there's no reason to doubt that Ron Paul was in fact drafted into the Air Force as a flight surgeon.

Quite possibly he was but would have to stop short of 100% certainty because I haven't seen the documentation myself. Wasn't exactly searching for that but did find an extensive debate on technicalities, etc., at this linked Ron Paul unfriendly dailykos.com page with some very good counterpoints in supporting evidence, imo, as to qualifications of that time period and so on.

Am posting two more links here, as well, that I should have included for fact-checking references at #68:

1. Vietnam War - Wikipedia

2. Exit Strategy: In 1963, JFK ordered a complete withdrawal from Vietnam | Boston Review

Because of your current LBJ sig quote, I thought you might be interested in this quick excerpt from the Boston Review article. Was a new JFK-topical news report to me, anyway:

Unfortunately, the last White House tape from the Kennedy administration is dated November 7, 1963. The archivists at the JFK Library have no information on why the tapings either ended or are unavailable for later dates.
