A draft board during the Vietnam War was a local government entity responsible for administering the military conscription process, known as the draft. These boards evaluated and classified men eligible for military service, determining who would be called up to fight in Vietnam. The draft was controversial and led to widespread protests, as many opposed the war and the compulsory nature of military service. Draft boards played a pivotal role in the implementation of the draft, influencing the lives of countless individuals during this tumultuous period in American history.
