Try getting the story straight, his educational S-2 status ended in 1968 
when he became 1-A available for service, he used family connections to get 
a much desired slot in the reserves (Navy), then failed to comply with the 
terms of that committment, sound familiar John;

Clinton recieved his induction notice, and jouned ROTC to get a 1-D 
reservist deferrement. There was much maneuvering used to get this 
deferrment and then Clinton still balked at his obligation.
