Australia

According to long-unreferenced text in the Conscription in Australia article (which I believe is correct), young Australians also burned their draft cards against conscription for the Vietnam War. I'll see if I can find some references on this. Nick-D (talk) 09:15, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, I had no idea. Great angle! Binksternet (talk) 15:22, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Link rot?

The external reference 53. "Induction Statistics". Selective Service. Retrieved March 13, 2011. seems to now go to a domain squatter, and it's not clear that selectiveservice.us was ever an official or reputable site, despite being used on this page and several other wikis that copy this pages' content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.56.209.248 (talk) 21:33, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
