If you were at the draft age during World War II

[mahon83050]

Ok, if we were alive when World War II broke out, I think anyone 18 to 39 in the United States would of most likely been drafted. I often wonder, if I was alive then, what branch would I have joined and what would I have wanted to do.

Well, as we know...only the Army had the draft. So, if you did not volunteer for the Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Army Air Corps or Navy...you were going in the Army (most likely Infantry)

SORRY, THIS POST IS GEARED TO AMERICAN DJ'S ONLY:

In your honest opinion, what branch and occupation would you have chosen. BE HONEST, if you are scared of heights or are not a daredevil, please do not say PARATROOPER OR P-51, OR DIVEBOMBER PILOT (these occupations were meant for men with steel balls)

I would of volunteered for either the Army Air Corps (bomber crew) or the Navy (doing what, I don't know) I would want anything, but the infantry.

If you were American you wouldn't have been drafted when WWII broke out.

US did not join the war until over two years after it began.

well if I had to pick I would pick the safest one, sorry I dont know any of the options to pick from. deffinetly I would not do anything with jumping out of an airplane . that would scare the s*it out of me. I honestly feel lucky that I wasnt born back then, cause I might sound like a p*ssy but that would be really scary.

Officer.

Army Sniper.

I'm wicked with a rifle.

That, or a scout, intel, perhaps even espionage.
