Fight for their country?

 If i was a 19 year old in 1970 and just received my notice that i had been drafted into the Vietnam War, I would escape to Canada. I was told to stand up for what i believe in when I was a kid. I don't see why i would fight for another country if it had nothing to do with me. Like O'brien said it would be more brave if you wold go to Canada. The reason why is that you are basically standing up to the U.S government instead of follow them. If you don't think something is right don't just go threw with it.

I would be highly pissed. How would they send troops to a war that had nothing to deal with us. So i would be brave and escape to Canada.
