Military ancestor

Question

Hi,

About the United States World War I Draft Registration Card 1917-1918? Does it mean they took part of the war mentionned?

Comments

No, not necessarily.

There are World War I draft registrations for about 24,000,000 men. About half of the 4,800,000 men who served were drafted.
