Just for refence, I think we'd all be safe
According to the
Selective Service System's website, a draft is lottery-based and would begin with those who are 20 years old by selecting birthdates at random.
For those whose birthday is called, they would then be required to show up for registration into the US military.
An example would be if a draft occurred in 2022, those who were born in the year 2002 would be selected. After each pool of people, the lottery-based system moves up year by year until it reaches those who are 25 years old.
If the US military requires more individuals to be conscripted, those chosen will be younger than 20, starting at 19 years old and moving down to 18 years old.
Who is exempt from a US draft?
Since the US military draft was implemented, women have continued to be exempt.
The US government proposed a bill to include women in the US draft but ultimately killed the bill in 2021.
