The Confederate Conscription Act, passed in April 1862, required all white men between the ages of 18 and 35 to serve in the Confederate Army for three years unless they were exempted for various reasons. This law was enacted in response to the declining number of volunteers and the need to bolster the Confederate military forces during the American Civil War.
