I didn't see this happen for WWI or Vietnam though, which is curious because if it isn't based on historical draft data, is it set for only WWII? The league stopped in Sept of 1918 until the end of the WWI.
Many players served including Cobb, Cristy Matthewson and Branch Rickey all served in the same unit in WWI but saw no action, and Eddie Grant was KIA while serving as a Captain.
A staggering number of players also served in Vietnam but the names were not as high profile as those in past wars.

I would also like to be able to manually have players out for a war vs suspending them or injuring them. In my league I have 3 wars and over 200 total players that serve including whole teams, and i don't know yet how i am gonna deal with that. If I injure a player he then becomes fragile and is likely to retire after missing 5 seasons. If I retire then unretire them they take a huge ratings hit after 2 years out.
