companies that have foundations or social responsibility programs, where they actually encourage volunteerismy their employees. one of the areas that we would like to explore is how do we increase that public-private sector cooperation in helping to find additional service programs. also asking businesses to put a priority into their hiring and promotion practices and recognizing someone who may have gone out and spent two years in the peace corps, someone who may be a little bit more worthy of a position within their organization. >> yes or? >> thank you. did you examine at all whether or not in the event that there were military drafts sometime in the future whether the selective service system is adequately resourced to actually carry out a military draft? >> so, we have spoke with the selective service system. they believe they are a little bit at 90 percent- registration wise to be able to affect a draft if a draft was put into law. and they are actually going through their process of what they would do if a draft was actually implemented. >> in addition, we visit one of the military pro
