Post #232,486 by Andrew Grygus 11/4/05 7:19:56 PM Reply	It was an almost unblievable comedy of errors. I'll write it up one of these days and post a link. A friend went through there some months later, and even with professional help wasn't able to do better than a 1Y (I understand that's an obsolete classification now). A few months after that the Los Angeles draft board was shut down for investigation because they'd drafted a guy confined to a wheel chair. The guy's lawyer told him to go ahead and show up for boot camp to avoid an arrest warrant, which he did. It caused a bit of a fuss. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
