Northeast Misery | Could someone elaborate a little more? What qualified someone for the ag deferment?
My dad qualified until he was about 24 and I can't recall or he never said what caused him to be ineligible. So his number came up and he went to St Louis and they put him on a plane to San Diego. "Congratulations son, you're going to be a marine." Sounded like he had a somewhat rough go of it as he was very out of shape compared to most of the other guys that were fresh out of school. War ended a week before his training was complete. 1969 I think.
