National Guard Draft Rules Clash Between Army and Selective Service
Washington reports a clash in view on draft exemptions for National Guard members. An Army official says guardsmen who enlist between ages 17 and 18 are exempt to eight years active service, while Selective Service maintains most guardsmen remain liable to induction until age 35 unless previously deferred. Both interpretations hinge on the 1951 Universal Training and Service Act with proposals to end temporary defenses for early joiners.
