I am referring to LEGAL immigrants. Still have a very long list of those waiting their turn to enter the country.
And how many draft dodgers did you actually get during the Viet Nam war? Not all that many at the end of the day. Nowadays, we have an all volunteer military, in case you haven't noticed. You may see a few deserters......but they are in the minority by a long shot. Re-enlistments here are very high. Our guys and gals believe they are making a positive difference - despite all of the lousy press they get, along with the disgraceful comments by many "leading lights" in our government.
