That wasn't what I asked. It was stated these kids were in the right age
to be drafted. I asked at what age we're drafting people. The answer is,
we're not, in spite of the efforts of the Democrats to reinstate the
draft.

If the draft were reinstated, it would start with men and women age 18,
who
had graduated from or finished with high school. At least it worked
that way
for Vietnam, minus the women part. Deferments were given for men that
were
accepted to and stayed in College or were married and had children. In
other cases
the sole surviving son was also deferred in order to keep the family
lineage
going.
