Abbreviations for Draft Statuses?

I found the classifications listed on the Selective Service Agency. I do remember that a person who was 4F was physically unable to serve. If someone was gay he was barred from the forces in World War 2.ClassificationsMen are not classified now. Classification is the process of determining who is available for military service and who is deferred or exempted. Classifications are based on each individual registrant's circumstances and beliefs. A classification program would go into effect when Congress and the President decide to resume a draft. Then, men who are qualified for induction would have the opportunity to file a claim for exemptions, deferments, and postponements from military service. Here is a list of some, though not all, classifications and what they mean:1-A - available immediately for military service.1-O Conscientious Objector- conscientiously opposed to both types (combatant and non-combatant) of military training and service - fulfills his service obligation as a civilian alternative service worker.1-A-O Conscientious Objector - conscientiously opposed to training and military service requiring the use of arms - fulfills his service obligation in a noncombatant position within the military.2-D Ministerial Students - deferred from military service.3-A Hardship Deferment - deferred from military service because service would cause hardship upon his family.4-C Alien or Dual National - sometimes exempt from military service.4-D Ministers of Religion - exempted from military service.

What were the World War 2 draft classifications?

Registered for the draft, but deferred by age (over 28). Typically a 1H person registered for the draft but was never called for a physical. It was considered unlikely that person would be called up. But in World War 2, male civilians up to the age of 44 were drafted into the armed services. Many, of course, had already enlisted before they would have been drafted.
