They stopped the draft because drafted soldiers kept fragging their superior officers lol, in Vietnam you as an LT or captain had to negotiate patrols with the enlisted and drafted soldiers. If they said “no we don’t want to do this” and the officers made them do it, they’d just kill the officers.
Damn, this sounds amazing. I need to read some accounts of this.

I can't remember where I heard it from or read it, it was probably some ass long vietnam war documentary. Sorry, wish I could help.
