What draft did Fuller dodge?
The U.S. hasn't had a draft since 1973. Actor Regan Burns was born in 1968. Are we supposed to believe Fuller is in his late 50s?

shareYou have to remember this came from Roxy. I watched this film again today and caught that line as well. But shook it off thinking, well she is a teenager and what did she really know about the draft anyway. Although I think they should have said, "you didn't serve" rather than even bringing in that word which really isn't even relevant now to the military. The guy did look much too young to have been even age appropriate when a draft would have been in place.
They should have cast him older. But it does bring up the point of how many of those right wing voices do want to ring the bell on how we need to go in fighting, this is true not just of the pundits but the politicians as well. Surprisingly of all those how few really have TRUE military experience unlike, for example, McCain. One of the few who really does have more of a military perspective.
