If a draft was instituted via Congress and the President, the Selective Service would conduct a random lottery based on birthdates and would require draftees to undergo physical, mental and administrative screening, with potential deferments or exemptions for various factors including education, family circumstances, or conscientious objection. The draft order would fall as such; 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 19, 18.

Thank you!

The United States Armed Forces transitioned to an all-volunteer military force on December 7, 1972, in the waning years of the Vietnam War. The Nation’s draft was followed by also converting to a national security readiness system. The success of the all-volunteer force is apparent. This Nation is fortunate to have military heroes who served this great Nation as both volunteers and draftees.

Today, on the 50th anniversary of the last draft call and the conception of the all-volunteer military, we recognize those individuals who were drafted and bravely served America in the United States Armed Forces in times of war and peace. Thank you for your service.
