Since I'm already in the army, I would have to say knowing what I know now, I'd run off to Canada, or better yet just feign insanity.

I'll be 50 in two weeks, so I really couldn't care less. Perhaps I could join the elite unit known as the grey panthers.

Uhmm!
It depends!
If it is a war started by my country, or where my country is an aggressor, I would flee to Switzerland (they are never at war, so I don't risk anything)
It is a defensive war, I would VOLUNTEER in the army

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

Well... I flee to Canada to serve, or to hide in the vast wilderness... so flee to Canada covers all options for me."The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

I'll just stay in New York. It's a pretty vast wilderness all on its own.

Hmm, seems I would have had to register, even though I'm a Canadian on a temporary work visa. Good thing I'm too old.What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?Comment

Honestly, it depends on why the war is being fought. If the US is being invaded or if we're doing the invading.

I have an army commission (infantry) so no prizes for guessing where I'd go.
I'm an old fart now and given my current employment I'd probably end up in the intelligence corps or a staff offcier, either way with a nice little office doing pretty much what I do now and posting here
I already know how to draw all the little army symbols on maps, answer a telephone and draft orders so I'd probably be posted here in the capital and live at home.
I'm also an expert at delegating work to others, officer's mess culture and long lunches. Nice war for some
Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..
Look, I just don't anymore, okay?Comment
