While this is true, once the nukes flew it really wasn't going to matter. Warm bodies in uniform would be needed everywhere and what they were tasked for pre-nuke wouldn't be anywhere near as much of a consideration as simply flying the flag and showing some form of organisation to the panicked civilians.

Then when Mexico invades (supported by the Soviets) anyone able to hold a rifle will be needed, again regardless of pre-war planning. Who could have envisaged Mexico crossing the border? What General would have risked their careers during a large scale European/Asian war to even so much as propose leaving significant numbers of troops in the US "just in case"? History may have proved them right, but...
