Hi! 
I'm writing a play in which the US has been forced to reinstitute the
military draft and a draftee is trying to get out of service by
falsely failing the psychological screen.
I need to know what an actual military psych screening/interview is
like - what questions are asked, what tests are given, etc.
Rorschachs, word-association, whatever. I have found plenty on the
draft itself, but almost no descriptions or examples of what such an
interview or screening process would look like.
I'll gladly take theoretical or ''sample'' interviews if that's all
that is available. In a perfect world, a transcript of such an
interview from the Viet Nam draft would be FANTASTIC. I know the
Israelis still have mandatory military service and a psych screening,
so examples from those tests would work in the absence of U.S.
screening questions.
I don't want to just make up the questions with absolutely no idea
what they did in real life.
Also, if you have any suggestions on movies or documentaries that show
scenes from military psych screenings, that would help in a pinch.
I'll even take a psych screening for law-enforcement officers, if
that's the only thing that's out there.
ANYTHING you could do to help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks,

Not to make light of your question, the answer to which would
be interesting to know. However the following (old) joke was
meant to illustrate that draftee screening is not known for
being especially thorough - especially in time of war.
Perhaps there's some truth to it:

A draftee goes into the interview room and stands there,
waiting for instructions from the interviewer. After 
awhile, the interviewer looks up, points to a chair and
says "Take a seat." So the draftee does so.

"Okay, you pass." says the screener. 

"What do you mean?" asks the draftee.

"Well, you heard what I said, so your hearing's okay;
you found the chair, so your vision's good; you walked
to it, so you're coordination is okay, and you did what
you were told, so you'll get along just fine. Welcome
to the Army."

If your play is set in present-day time, a Vietnam era psyche test
wouldn't be relevant. Should the US reinstate the draft, they would be
using the Neuro-psychological assessment exam on inductees which has
long since incorporated the measurement of cognitive skills, memory
skills, hand-eye coordination, motor skills, etc. The use of this test
began in the very late 70's and early 80's and has been in use ever
since. The Vietnam era psychological test was degisned to meet the
minimum standards for determining the sanity of draftees and that's
about all it was intended for. That old type is test is not very
revealing and has not been used in decades. I doubt that a copy of it
would be of any use to your for modern day purposes.

You're familiar with Alice's Restaurant, I hope..!

Dear Hundred Words, 



Like Pafalafa-ga, I wanted to mention Alice's Restaurant, which has a
great draft dodging scene.

Interesting, related story:

I cannot give you a dialogue, but I heard many stories from Israelis
trying to ditch the draft. In other words, I can give you a
description (after few phone calls to people who managed to do it)
based on anecdotal evidence. Since you question is about to expire,
please post it again if you're interested.
