Do you really want to compare the Rush 'the drugster' and draft dodger to Ed Shultz, All-American quarterback and NAIA passing leader in 1977?
Although Rush's fat ass is famous...he was able to get out of serving in the during the Vietnam War when he got a medical deferment from a private doctor. Poor Rush had a dreaded pilonidal cyst on his posterior...translation: an ingrown hair follicle on his ass...
what branch of the military did Ed serve with?......and if not....why?....
Schultz didn't dodge the draft like Rush, he missed it. There was no conscription after 1973. The last draft lottery was for men born in 1953, but, men born in 1953 were not drafted due to abolition of the draft in 1973.
Schultz was born in 1954.
and if Ed was born earlier he would have dodged it using school as a way to do it.....dont try and make him sound Noble and Rush sound like an ass.....if Ed was older he would have done what he had to do to stay out of it.....like most of the guys back then......
