Sounds suspicious...........George W. Bush never served either.....
rump was eligible for the draft lottery during the Vietnam War.[33] He was not drafted due to four student deferments (2-S) while attending college, as well as a medical deferment (1-Y, later converted to 4-F) obtained in 1968 after his college graduation, prior to the lottery being initiated.[34] Trump was deemed fit for service after a military medical examination in 1966 and was briefly classified as 1-A by a local draft board shortly before his 1968 medical disqualification.[35] Trump attributed his medical deferment to "heel spurs" in both feet, according to a 2015 biographer,[28] but told an Iowa campaign audience he suffered from a spur in one foot, although he could not remember which one.[35] "I actually got lucky because I had a very high draft number", he told WNYW in 2011.[36] Selective Service records retrieved by The Smoking Gun website from the National Archives show that, Trump did eventually receive a high selective service lottery number in 1969.
