    A friend of mine with a HD Rocker, has been drafted, goes to do military service for a year or so. I am thinking of getting him something to take along for his time in the military, something more biker related than local to here. Is there anything you guys are aware of from your days of drafts and going into the military that might be suitable?

    Cheers

    We haven't had a draft since the '70's, but I'd suggest something like:

    - good book (or a Kindle loaded up with good books, like Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance or a host of other biker titles)

    - biker flask

    - Biker shirt(s) (a T-shirt in the same color as his uniform undershirt is cool, 'cuz he can wear it when the mood hits to be a little "unauthorized".

    - Wristwatch (generally acceptable in all the services if it ain't too ostentatious).

    - Bike-theme Lighter (don't need to smoke to need a lighter!)

    - Biker multi-tool

    Hope that helps!
