Reminds me of how the physicist Richard Feynman was found psychologically unfit for military service in WWII... The brainless should not be in banking -- Willem Buiter
Myspance/Richard Feynman- Uncle Sam Doesn't Need You!
After the war the army was scraping the bottom of the barrel to get the guys for the occupation forces in Germany. Up until then the army deferred people for some reason other than physical first (I was deferred because I was working on the bomb), but now they reversed that and gave everybody a physical first. That summer I was working for Hans Bethe at General Electric in Schenectady, New York, and I remember that I had to go some distance-I think it was to Albany - to take the physical. I get to the draft place, and I'm handed a lot of forms to fill out, and then I start going around to all these different booths. They check your vision at one, your hearing at another, they take your blood sample at another, and so forth.
