Leaders Delay Showdown on Draft Age
House Armed Services committee approves a bill to lower the draft age to 18 and create a universal military training program after four days of closed door wrangling.

A Senate bill would set youth service from 19 to 25, with size capped at 4 million, and Republicans may seek broader arms limits and veto power over troop deployments to Europe.
