2006, an interviewer from the British newspaper The Independent questioned Nugent about a 1977 interview in High Times magazine in which Nugent allegedly detailed elaborate steps taken to avoid the Vietnamdraft.[51] In the interview Nugent says, contrary to the story in High Times, that "I had a 1Y [student deferment]. I enrolled at Oakland Community College.". However, the Selective Service classification for student deferment is actually 2-S, and medical deferment is 1-Y. A copy of Nugent's Selective Service record shows that he had at separate times both a 1-Y medical deferment and 2-S student deferment.[56]
Being smelly and dirty is grounds for rejection? The Army didn't have showers back then or something?
You can't be that naive. Would you want to serve next to someone who'd do what Nugent did to himself to avoid serving his country? He may not have technically dodged the draft but what he did to earn himself a 4-F was far worse. He was a disgusting pig back then to pull that scam on the military and he hasn't changed much over the years.
according to ted it is ( along with and intentionally poor diet, sleep deprivation and snorting crystal meth ). did you read the link with ted's interview from high times in oct 1977?

He did not get an 4-f

draft dodging is when you do not appear at the draft board and skip the country.
So you are sure he was not really crazy .You have a degree in psychiatry and interviewed him?
If you out of hate want to accuse him then at least have proof.
Try again. Draft dodging also encompasses presenting yourself in such a way that all but guarantees rejection.
Nugent is a self-serving piece of crap that has suddenly found it both expedient and profitable to pimp himself as a supporter of the the troops.
Good men died so self-promoting Ted could sit safely at home working on improving his public image while amassing maximum personal profit.
Nugent would have to do some serious social climbing to work his way up to the level of abusive and self-serving assclown.
In addition to the above his music would have to get substantially better to work it's way up to the level of sucking.
No thinking individual that placed so much as an iota of value upon principle would attempt to justify Nugent's actions.

According to Ted's own words in an article interview he did some years ago, he said it was a 4-F. So why did he lie about it in the article if he actually got a medical deferment for the disgusting way he showed up at the draft board? Didn't that sound tough enough for him?
