    I found five presidents had sons and/or grandsons that went to war. Both Roosevelts, Ike, Biden and LBJ.

    Thank you for providing us with that information E. I appreciate it bigly. Did you find anything on presidents with draft-dodger sons? Apparently GUANO threatened to disinherit his two oldest sons should they go into the military which I believe they both wanted to do. So they didn't. I know it was not a draft dodged since the draft was discontinued. Thank you for your reply E and Happy Sunday to thee and thine! :)
