	'''The Draft''' Before 1917, many young men, eager to serve, signed up as ambulance drivers in Europe, or crossed the border to serve in the Canadian Army. Once the U.S. entered the war, there was a rush to enlist, but still more men were needed. On June 5, 1917, the first registration for the draft was held, for all men between the ages of 21 and 31. The draft ensured that many boys who graduated high school in 1916 or before would serve in World War One.

	'''The Draft''' Before 1917, many young men, eager to serve, signed up as ambulance drivers in Europe, or crossed the border to serve in the Canadian Army. Once the U.S. entered the war, there was a rush to enlist, but still more men were needed. On June 5, 1917, the first registration for the draft was held, for all men between the ages of 21 and 31. The draft ensured that many boys who graduated high school in 1916 or before would serve in World War One.
