Speaking of signatures: "Judge Rules Reservist Must Report for Duty"
Man, this is crazy. A guy who served his 8 year requirement after ROTC is being recalled because he didn't sign some form letter.

A man who served the eight years required under his ROTC contract remains an Army reservist obliged to report for active duty because he failed to sign a resignation letter, a federal judge has ruled.

(snip)

But Judge Louise Flanagan denied the request on Friday, meaning that if the Army denies Parrish's administrative appeal, he could be forced to go on active duty while the case is litigated.

(snip)

Army lawyer Maj. Chris Soucie told the judge that Parrish could be recalled to duty because he failed to sign a resignation line on a letter asking for an update on his personal information.


Talk about your backdoor draft!

2. He should say he wants out like Bush
Bush got early during a time of war and the draft. That's what these guys should be saying, "I want to serve like Bush," that would really bring the comparisons from Vietnam back.
