The Selective Service System plans to automatically register eligible American men between ages 18 and 25 for a U.S. military draft by December, almost a half-century after compulsory registration for the draft for that age group became law, a government filing shows.

The agency’s proposal would implement a requirement passed by Congress in December in the National Defense Authorization Act to include automatic registration for “every male citizen of the United States” between those ages.

There has not been a military draft since 1973, when U.S. involvement in the war in Vietnam was winding down.
