A Short Guide To The Draft

From The Selective Service and You, published by the U.S. Government Printing Office:

APPEALS:

1. Your classification may be appealed by you or your dependent or by your employer if he requested your current deferment before that classification. This appeal must be submitted in writing to your local board.

2. An appeal must be taken within 30 days after your local board mails you a Notice of Classification, except when a longer period is allowed as stated on that notice.

3. Additional information on appeals will be on each Notice of Classification mailed to you.

REMEMBER:

1. Report a change of address to your local board at once.

2. Keep your board informed of your current status at all times.

3. Classifications are subject to change by the local boards at any time.

4. If you are away from your local board and you are in doubt as to your obligation to Selective Service, go to the nearest board and request assistance.

5. Failure to comply with an order from your local board may make you subject to fine or imprisonment.
