Amazing what one can learn from Wikipedia.

Also about recent presidents military history:

46: 5 student draft deferments + 1 conditional medical deferment due to 
asthma

45: 4 student draft deferments + 1 conditional medical deferment + 1 not 
acceptable for service due to bone spurs

44: too young to be drafted - never volunteered for military service

43: did serve during Vietnam War - in Texas Air National Guard stationed 
in Texas

42: several student draft deferments - eventually registered for draft 
but pulled a very high number so was not drafted

The last US president to have actually seen combat was 41.
