ONE love, blood, life
Just out of curiosity...
A friend of mine who's a U.S. citizen but not native-born was talking about the "war" the other day. He's afraid that he'll get drafted if there's a war. This sounded wrong to me, because I think he's too old for the draft (the cutoff age is 26, right?). I asked him why he thought this, despite the fact that he is too old to be drafted (he's 28 and would be at least 29 by the time they'd have to institute a draft). He said it's because foreign-born citizens get drafted first to take the front lines. I have no idea what "taking the front lines" means and have never heard of such a policy, official or otherwise, before. Anyone know anything about this?
