Should amnesty be granted to Vietnam era draft evaders
The article argues against immediate amnesty for draft resisters and deserters amid Vietnam. It cites 70,000 to 100,000 Americans abroad and 35,249 deserters at large, noting moral stakes and honoring 55,000 Americans who died. It recalls historical pardons but says current war conditions do not warrant clemency or presidential action now.
