During WWII and Vietnam.
Yes, during WWII and the Vietnam War, but to be more general, the military draft is used whenever the U.S. does not have enough voluntary recruits (meaning, when there are not enough volunteers). So, it could be argued that the military draft is used to "force" people into the army to defend their country. It has not been employed since the early 1970's.
From WWII until the end of the Vietnam War. The draft was kept in effect due to the cold war.
However, cold war or not, after Vietnam...the draft had to be let go.
in the 17 hundreds maybe?
yes
The military draft. The military draft. And of course, the military draft. If people are NOT involved...they simply do not care. When they received that draft notice in the US Mail...they very suddenly cared!
I have read it was used during the Civil War years for the first time in the United States.
The US military draft began in the US Civil War (1861-1865).
The Army CIC or FBI would arrest you and send you to Leavenworth prision for 5 to 20 years.
The draft was part of the cold war; having been in effect since 1945.
yes
America has an all volunteer military, it no longer has a military draft. 18 is the voting age instead 21.
No, women are not required to register for the draft.
Yes, until the end of the Viet War, then it went away.
From WWII thru Vietnam (1941 thru 1973).
Define "national service." (in the US) the military draft was NOT phased out, and the selective service law is still in effect and all persons turning 18 years of age are required to register.
The people of the government tried to military draft me to fight for their country.
The military draft. The military draft. And of course, the military draft. If people are NOT involved...they simply do not care. When they received that draft notice in the US Mail...they very suddenly cared!
Draft dodger!

The 13th Amendment guarantees freedom from slavery for all people and has nothing to do with a military draft. The US also does not use a military draft to date.
