I was involved in the draft during the war in Vietnam. Number #37. I was as good as on the bus to basic.

But I had enrolled in the Corps at Va Tech so went in as an officer.

The draft is involuntary servitude. That's all I have to say.

As I said STFU.
Almost all male US citizens and male immigrants, who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service.
It’s important to know that even though he is registered, a man will not automatically be inducted into the military. In a crisis requiring a draft, men would be called in a sequence determined by random lottery number and year of birth. Then, they would be examined for mental, physical, and moral fitness by the military before being deferred or exempted from military service or inducted into the Armed Forces.
