Only Son In The Military

[John Atkinson]

I am not sure, in my family my mother's two brothers were both drafted, one was killed in a car wreck a couple of days after his draft notice came. The other was already in Vietnam, he came home for the funeral, but even though he was the only remaining son he still had to return to Vietnam to complete his tour.
My uncle Jake was the only son of my greatgrandparents, and he still was in the army in WW2
