My father worked in an aircraft plant at the outset of WWII and was "drafted" three times. His foreman repeatedly went to the draft board to get him deferred so he could stay and help build the planes needed for the war effort. When the third notice came, my father made preparations to take my mother and I back to their home town and so talked the foreman out of getting this notice rescinded. However, when I view my father's WWII information is says he enlisted. That may be technically true, because his draft notice came from a draft board in the state where he was working and his actual entry into the Army Air Corps was from his home state. So, since he entered the service from his home state, neither his home draft board or the draft board where he worked could report his entry. Just a guess on my part, though.

Then when there is a sited mentioned for WWII there is only a sited listed for enlisted, but never for drafted????????? Can anyone answer this for me????????? My grandfather enlisted in WWI and my father was drafted in WWII. I would like to see a web sited for this, but Have never seen one.
