My draft number was well over 300. Don't remember, exactly. After earning an Associate's Degree in Engineering, I enlisted in the Army's 1st Cavalry Division, combat arms unassigned. Served with the 2/19FA, 1CD 1973-1978. I saw the travelling Wall on Camp Mabry, in Austin, Texas. I had been recalled to active duty with the Texas Army National Guard, so I was in uniform. I found the section of names covering 73-75. Too many names of heroes who died in my place.
