What is Selective Service?

The Selective Service System is an independent agency within the United States federal government. It's responsible for maintaining a list, or a "registry," of potential draftees in case the country needs to implement a military draft during a time of national emergency.

In the event that the government decides to reinstate the draft, the Selective Service System would provide a pool of eligible individuals who could be called upon to serve in the armed forces. This system helps ensure that the military has access to a sufficient number of personnel if voluntary enlistment alone is not enough to meet national defense requirements.
