all happen* very quickly That * why they ask

to the exam*
Students can file for a postponement of the
date to report for service to finish the term, or the
school year if one t* a senior. Friend said "But
you must be prepared to show documentation of
enrollment
CXher causes for postponements include a
death in the family or serious illness initially for
up to GO days past your dale to report," she said.
I'nder the new selective service laws, the
window of opportunity to avoid military’ service
is smaller in terms of time and options, said
CALC draft counselor Robert Could Hardship,
surviving son. medical or conscientious objection
are among the most common exemptions and de
ferments
Exemptions, once granted, are permanent ex
clusions from military service. Friend said. Defer
ments. however, must be re-documented each
year to show that justification for the exclusion
still exists Forms for claiming postponements,
exemptions and deferments should be included
with the induction notices. Friend said.
One of the most common exemptions is the
medical, psychological and "moral" classifica
tion of exemption A man may be disqualified
from medical service if he fails the Army physical
or psychological exam on the reporting date, has
some "obviously disqualifying" physical or men
tal condition, ha* a felony record or is confined
in an institution
"If a person has a very obvious physical dis
ability. they would send the appropriate docu
mentation and the selective service would just
process that." Friend said "But most people
who don't go into the military for medical condi
tion* are not in this category "
During the Vietnam draft. Friend said. 40 to
50 percent of the voung men who took the physi
cal did not pass
"It’s a very ideosyricrastic list.” Friend add
ed "In Vietnam, people with obvious physical
disqualifications got in. and people with minor
physical conditions got exemptions If you end
up coming in for your physical and think you can
get disqualified, have your documentation ready
and raise a ruckus.”
Friend suggested that anyone with questions
should pick up the 20-page packet about the med
ical exemptions at the CALC office. 458 Blair
Blvd.
The audience raised several questions con
cerning the military's stance on issues of homo
sexuality. Gould said homosexual orientation
does qualify a person for exemption, but provid
ing convincing documentation can be a problem.
"The military is living in the past in terms of
homosexuality," Gould said. "Essentially the
military looks at it as a disease. Homosexuality is
an exemption for military service, but there are
examples of gay men in Vietnam who were never
recognized as gay.
"If you want it as an exemption you need to
get a member of the clergy or someone to docu
ment your orientation.” Gould said. "Again, doc
umentation is very important.”
Induction can be deferred for one year if your
induction would cause a financial, physical or
psychological hardship to someone who depends
on you. Friend said. Substantial documentation
is necessary.
"As you can imagine, there are very few 20
to 25-year-olds providing that kind of financial
support; but if you think you are. it is worth it to
apply,” Friend said.
“Conscientious objector" is an exemption or
reclassification on the basis that an individual is
opposed on religious or moral ground to partici
pation in the war. Friend said, and persons
claiming this need to convince the draft board of
the sincerity of their beliefs.
Conscientious objectors are assigned alter
nate duty if they convince the selective service of
their sincerity, Friend said. Documentation show
ing depth of conviction is important, Friend add
ed. because all persons claiming conscientious
objection must argue their case before the draft
board.
"There are two types: the objection to partic
ipating in war and the objection to direct combat
but not to military service," Friend said. "Unfor
tunately. usually the non-combat positions are
the most difngemus. because they're in areas of
combat and unarmed "
Friend recommended draft counseling for
anyone planning to claim conscientious objec
tion. A workshop on these exemptions and defer
ments is scheduled for Monday at 7'tO p.m. at
the First United Methodist Church. 1376 Olive
St For more information on draft counseling,
contact Robert Gould at 485-1755
