Did young men have to enlist in World War 2?

At the beginning of World War Two (and before) men willingly enlisted. The government put the draft in place eventually. The draft weeded out those who were not eligible to serve and those who could. Men continued to enlist willingly though. Some young men who were only 17 uncommonly and fraudulently enlisted too by telling the recruiters they were 18 and often showed false papers.
