World War II. Draft age is lowered to 18. On this day in 1942, Congress approves lowering the draft age to 18 and raising the upper limit to age 37. In September 1940, Congress, by wide margins in both houses, passed the Burke-Wadsworth Act, and the first peacetime draft was imposed in the history of the United States.
The age for registration was now between the ages of eighteen and sixty-five, but only those ages eighteen to forty-five available for immediate conscription. Those drafted also had to serve the length of the war plus six months. The WW2 draft lasted from 1940 to 1947, when the bill expired. Around eleven million men were drafted into service during these eight years. Making the world better, one answer at a time.
