LOL...

One of the first things you do when you join the military service is fill out the selective service card.

Go down to the post office. Fill out the card. It takes about 2 minutes.

 And don't forget to "opt in" on the life insurance.

Just go register for the selective service, I did it when I turned 17 roughly 300 years ago, but providentially I was already too old to serve when the French and Indian War broke out... ;)

If they started drafting women, what are we supposed to do with our children?

I think the time limit was within 30 days of your 18th birthday, but that was when I turned 18 and that was a long time ago.

I never signed up with selective service.



I enlisted on my 17th birthday.

I signed up at the end of the Viet Nam war.  My draft number was 135 I think.  But, by then they had quit drafting.

When you filled out your thing for your license, didn't it have a thing that said "I hereby agree to selective service" blah blah blah to receive your license?  Not sure when you got yours but I got mine a week or so ago and that's what it said.  I'm not sure if this means I don't need to register (I probably will anyway, just in case) but schools also have things that track kids for this kind of stuff if I remember correctly.  School stuff might just be so the military can send you flyers though.
