what were the age requirements for the us wwii draft?
In WWII, males between 18 and 64 were required to register, but the selections were limited by executive order on December 5, 1942 from from 21â45 to 18â38. Assuming the citation (George Q. Flynn, The Draft, 1940â1973) is correct, 50 million men from 18 to 45 were registered.
