Stefan Molyneux has a thought about some facts.
Men have to register for the draft at age 18
Defending Borders overseas is important says the same group that does not think defending America's Border is important.
Maybe the best way to answer this question and problem is to include women in the draft process when they turn 18 years old?
That would be bringing equality to all.

All men must register, including non citizens who live here. Did you know that?
Anyway, all of this is a tempest in a teacup.

It doesn't PO3 (Join to see) but my female students (also including non citizens) didn't understand why they didn't have to register.

But the last actual draft was 1973 and the last legislation authorizing a draft expired in 1975. While you are required to register, at present it is relatively meaningless.
Born 1955. turned 18 in 1973. Lottery #123. As far as I can find, we were the last group to get numbers or be classified. If you don't know how that system worked at the end, they didn't Draft until the year you turned 19 1/2, so the 1973 Draft was for men with the birth year of 1953. After 1971, the #125 would have been a "safe" number since the lottery number never exceeded 95 during that period.
Things that used to be important to know as a young man.

CPT Lawrence Cable - It is still important to register. If you want a government job or to qualify for certain benefits and you are eligible for the draft but not registered, you can't apply.
