The end of 1969 was the first draft lottery.
During the Vietnam War there was a draft lottery. They would randomly choose a number from 1 to 365 ( a process much like randomly choosing a number for any lottery), and it would stand for the day of the year indicating the date of birth of young men of 18 years of age, and then they would draft people who were born on that date.
The draft has expiration dates. It expired and Nixon renewed it until he could pull out the remaining US troops.
The 3 Most Common Examples of the Military Draft in the history of the U.S.A are The Confederacy put in their draft in 1862 The Union instituted their draft in 1862 (mass riots ensued in New York and Boston) In Vietnam the military instituted a draft in early 1969

The draft had been operating before the Vietnam War; Elvis Presley was drafted into the US Army in 1958, serving on an M-48 Patton tank (the same tank used in the Vietnam War). He served in Europe, assigned to the 1/32 Armor (tank battalion): See film; "GI Blues", starring Elvis Presley. The draft ended in the US in 1973, the same year the US pulled out of Vietnam.
The draft numbers for 1965 were part of the U.S. military draft system established during the Vietnam War era. In that year, the Selective Service System assigned lottery numbers based on birthdates, with the first draft lottery held on December 1, 1969, for men born in 1944 to 1950. However, in 1965 specifically, the draft was still based on classifications rather than a lottery system, and the numbers were assigned to registrants based on their age and deferments. The draft continued to evolve throughout the Vietnam War, impacting many young men in the U.S. during that time.
From 1945 to 1973.

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.
In the 2023 NBA Draft Lottery, the Boston Celtics had a total of 0 chances to secure a top pick. This was because they traded their first-round pick to the San Antonio Spurs as part of the deal for Derrick White. Consequently, the Celtics were not eligible for any lottery selections this year.
The NBA lottery began in 1985 but did not reach its present style until 1987. Prior to 1985, a coin flip determined the draft pick overall.
