High Times interview Ted Nugent, October, 1977: How did you get out of the draft?
Nugent: So I got my notice to be in the draft. Do you think I was gonna lay down my guitar and go play army? Give me a break! I was busy doin' it to it. I had a career, Jack! I ceased cleansing my body. No brushing teeth, no washing hair, no baths, no soap, no water. Thirty days of debris build. My hair was gettin' kinky, matted up. I just had chips, Pepsi, beer, syrup. Then a week before, I stopped going to the bathroom. I did it in my pants. Shit, piss the whole shot. My pants got crusted up. I was a walking, talking hunk of human shit.

Here are just a few things Ted Nugent has done for the troops...
Donated in excess of 2,000 tickets and backstage passes to the military, 2005-2006.
Performed for 55,000 Marines, Sailors and their families at Camp Pendleton's Rockin' the Corps on April 1, 2005, along with fellow musicians DestinyÂ’s Child, Godsmack, Kiss, and more. The Performance was also shown as a Big Screen Concert Event in 74 Markets Nationwide.
In 2004, participated in a USO Tour of the Persian Gulf with Toby Keith, and toured with Keith in The Big Throwdown Tour, 2005.
Every man can change and I believe that Ted Nugent is no different, he has done a lot over the years to help those in need even though in his early career he was less than a stellar human being. The point here is this, regardless of who is in the White House , you don't have to respect the man that sits there, but if you respect this nation then respect the Office. I don't think his remarks mean all that much in terms of who it is going to sway and I am sure in the heat of the moment and after his conversation with the Secret Service it won't be repeated the same way, so I'm willing to give the man the benefit of the doubt.
