His year of college may have saved him that year. National draft numbers came in the late 60s. Mine was 350 in 1972.

Re: Dylan not drafted in 60s
I was 262 in '72, 300 in '73, but I switched majors to Theology in '72 so I wouldn't be eligible. I didn't have anything against those little yellow dudes, saw no reason to go kill them.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Re: Dylan not drafted in 60s

I have double-glazing and close fitting doors. Draughts are not a problem.
