The correct answer is A) Draft evaders

Draft evaders or draft dodgers were people who didn't serve in the war and did not show up when drafted which was a criminal offense. They would hide or some would even go to other countries like Canada. Jimmy Carter signed their amnesty which meant that they would not be criminally prosecuted for evading the draft.
