Vietnam's draft, officially known as the Selective Service System, primarily targeted young men aged 18 to 26. It involved a lottery system where individuals were selected randomly based on their birthdates, and those drafted were required to serve in the military, often in Vietnam. The draft faced significant opposition and protests, particularly from anti-war activists and college students, leading to widespread public debate about its fairness and morality. The draft was eventually ended in 1973 as the U.S. moved towards an all-volunteer military force.
