That's silly. No one is going to waste gas on a draftee that doesn't know anything about parachutes. And what's wrong with chewing tobacco? I don't currently partake, but when I did it was a fine enough diversion.
2nd... Honestly, I wouldn't object to being drafted. Odd Catholic Doctrine of just war and all, says I can't just volunteer to go shoot Ruskies; I'd have to believe in some principled, defend the good guy thing, and seeing as how there are no good guys involved in this fight... well no dice.... But drafted... all good. That said, the chance of them letting me have an infantry MOS, given my particular history, is somewhere between slim and none; though I'd not be above taking a knee and begging a bit. So getting to jump out of an airplane isn't high on the list of probable outcomes.
That said, I'm downplaying it because it looks so unimpressive. Sorry.
