I was in high school and I remember hearing about it while riding the bus to school. I remember thinking I was close to the age where I would be drafted for war. Everyone was shocked and we watched the news at school in the cafeteria, can't remember if I left early.
I didn't get drafted obviously, but years later I did volunteer for the Army and went to Afghanistan. In hindsight, I don't think we should have been there.
