On September 11, 2001 (I was 22), I was fully expecting GWB to give a "sacrifice" speech about the long conflict coming. I was expecting a draft, or at the very least a request for more volunteers. I was prepared to sign up (not sure what branch--was between Marines and Air Force).
That speech never came. A draft never came. A request for more volunteers never came. I went back to my life and forgot about it.
