How did Daylight Saving Time affect the Vietnam War draft?
A man, born just after 12:00 a.m. DST, was able to circumvent the Vietnam War draft by using a daylight saving time loophole. When drafted, he argued that standard time, not DST, was the official time for recording births in his state of Delaware in the year of his birth. Thus, under official standard time he was actually born on the previous day—and that day had a much higher draft lottery number, allowing him to avoid the draft.

Why is daylight saving in March this year?
Daylight savings is in March this year because of the Energy Policy Act in 2005. The Act extended Daylight Saving Time (DST) by four weeks, starting from the second Sunday in March and ending on the first Sunday in November. The four weeks were added with the hope that businesses, homes, and other energy using sources would use less energy. Whether or not less energy is being used, or that more energy is being saved has yet to be seen.
