Any war that would require both the draft and an increase in the age of those being drafted involves nuclear weapons, and then everyone is dead anyways. The fact that it technically can happen doesn't take away from it being stupid. That aside, I'm 28 and my left leg and shoulder are held together by metal rods and plates, and I'm supposed to use a cane to walk around. That being said, if a war was going on that was bad enough to necessitate a draft(like something on the scale of WW2), I'd probably volunteer for some sort of non combat support role.
