Draft Lottery Rules Explain 1970 Exposure and Timing
The 1970 draft will expose about 850000 men including 500000 in 1-A or 1-A-O plus 350000 deferred or exempt. The drawing divides birthdays into thirds, with those born early in the year most likely to be drafted, middle third possibly called, and last third unlikely. Lt Gen Hershey opened the lottery ceremony and 25 youths protested outside Selective Service HQ calling it a masterful practical joke.
