Meatloaf "would do anything" to avoid military draft

8. Looks like it's from a brief item in Men's Fitness with no attribution for its claims

Some of the info appears to be from wiki's bio on him, but the draft info may have come from his autobiography. Another website describes it this way:

Meat Loaf was transferred to North Texas State University, after attending Lubbock Christian College. He then tried to fail an Army physical by gaining sixty-eight pounds in a mere four-and-a-half weeks. The Army still considered him fit, even though he had a trick shoulder, was colorblind, and was quite prone to suffering concussions. He ignored his draft notice two years later, when it arrived. His mother died in 1967, which led to him moving to Los Angeles, becoming a bouncer for a nightclub.
