Answer 1

The correct answer is C. Americans believed that the military was not drafting enough soldiers.

This statement does not align with the common critiques and sentiments surrounding the draft during the Vietnam War. Instead, many Americans were opposed to the draft because they believed it was unfair and that too many young men were being forced into service, leading to widespread protests and unrest.
