Registration Set July 1 for Possible Military Training
President Roosevelt ordered roughly 1,000,000 young men turning 21 since October 16 to register by July 1 for potential training. Local draft boards and a new national lottery will determine order of call, with registration serving national defense goals. The plan aims to integrate new registrants with the existing draft pool, likely by adding them to the end of local lists.
