Draft Dodgers

Draft dodgers are individuals who avoid compulsory military service during a period of conscription. They might refuse to participate for various reasons, such as personal beliefs, political objections, or moral principles. Some may leave their country, seek alternative forms of service, or simply refuse to register. The concept often arises during wartimes when governments require citizens to serve in the military, and draft dodgers choose non-compliance to protest or avoid participation. The term carries historical and political implications, and responses to draft dodging can vary widely depending on the legal and social context.
