2. The truth is that there was a draft.

The US just had to reach down into the bottomless barrel to throw more bodies at the conflict. It played well with the public to say one tour required. Believe me if there was a draft today ( and the reason we don't have one is because no politico wants to draft women) one tour would be a non-issue.
