Congress passed the Selective Service Act during World War I in 1917 to address the urgent need for military personnel as the U.S. entered the conflict. The act established a system for conscription, allowing the government to draft men into the armed forces to ensure adequate troop levels. With millions of soldiers required for combat, the legislation aimed to quickly mobilize and train a large army to support the Allies. This marked a significant shift in U.S. military policy from a volunteer-based system to one that included mandatory service.

A draft is a compulsory call to civilians. The military is always reaching out to civilians to get them to join. But when there are not enough voluntary enlistments during a time of emergency such as a war, civilians of a certain age and health are forced to join or are "drafted." This first happened in the US during the Civil War.
The Congressional Medal of Honor is awarded only for military service, not for civilian service. Civilians do not win it. The Congressional Gold Medal and the Presidential Medal of Freedom are the hight civilian honors given in the US. Now, it may be possible that the Congressional Medal Honor has been given by mistake a few times or to civilians who took heroic actions during a war they were officially not a part of. While most erroneous medals were revoked, it seems that a few civilians did get to keep theirs since they were in some paramilitary organization and did what would be considered heroic military service.
