In the case of a massive WW3 conflict. What would be the point of needing more infantry? Walk out into the field, KABLAMMO, nuclear fireball. Everyone dies instantly. Rinse and repeat until everyone is dead.

That's the good thing about nukes. They prevent this kind of shit from happening. I pray that all the Major countries keep nukes forever, and that there will never be a way to fully stop a nuke from hitting its target. It's the only way you'll prevent full scale WW2 style conflict.

I do not see why we would need a draft.

90% of the troops are below 25.

Everyone volunteer's.

But I don't see why they would need to bring a draft back unless it is very needed to.

Thing is nukes are so dangerous that nobody in their right mind would use them in fear of getting some sent back. Mutually Assured Destruction has pretty much prevented what would've otherwise been certain war between the US and the Soviet Union.

a major war in the 21st century would be a technological one and therefore no.

anyway because of the Nuclear Deterrent, a major war is very unlikely

We are not fighting a conventional war right now
we don't know who the enemy is, kind of like Vietnam.


Nukes are a terror weapon, and we do not want to launch nukes for the fact that there will be a strike back.
We would still have the need of infantry to hold captured land.

I believe we not have a draft
because most of us will be pissed off on a attack on the U.S.

How is lavadisk looking "at people over [his] nose"?

Anyway, all Americans are welcome to stay at my house, in Vancouver, if a draft ever arises. I'll hide you in my basement from the Mounties. Just be warned, you'll be eating a lot of bulk maple syrup...

I say no. The reason we did that in WW2 is cause we lacked technology. Now we can nuke shit and be like, PWNED! Er sumthin..
I wish/hope prospective US soldiers (or soldiers of any army for that matter) give a little more thought to the major decision of signing up than what you stated above... I'm not trying to insult you, it's just that many countries start wars for very cynical reasons and the dirty deeds of people in office are carried out by the brave and often fool hardy soldiers on the ground ...it may be thrilling when you're there but you may have to live the rest of your life living with the demons because some fat cat had his own nefarious agenda.

Well, I'd fight anyways since I'm joining the Air force. We have enough people to fight. No need for it really. Our guys are more combat ready than most countries anyway.

For Korea, no. Eventually, Korea will fall on its own. The only thing keeping the economy alive is the hatred of Americans.

I have no problem being drafted for a major war.  Problem is that if we had a major war it will be Nuclear and it might just be the end of well...mankind.
