I believe the draft is for ages 18-25. It makes no damn sense to me why you would draft women in prime birthing years to go serve as a grunt in a foreign war. It’ll be a damn mess. Even when I deployed we ended up with bunch of unplanned pregnancies, and those ladies weren’t forced to be in the military. I think it’s dumb.
They got pregnant so they could get off the Navy ships too ...
Um, you are sadly mistaken. The current form of the draft, Selective Service, requires all male citizens between the ages of 18 and 26 to register for the draft; those registered are are liable to be called up until the age of 35.
Or put another way - you MUST register for the draft before you turn 27 if you are male and they can draft you at any time until you turn 36. There are additional laws out there that can force a male to register before turning 27; many Federal programs such as student aid, federal job training programs and Federal employment itself require males to have signed up for Selective Service.
Further, there is historical precedent that under unusual circumstances, those so registered can be drafted up to the age of 45.
It is not just for people aged 18-25.
