I'd reckon there isn't much need for the S³ now though, since there are a lot of people who are willing to be soldiers. This would also be true if the United States would mind its own damn business and stop meddling into other countries' affairs. I guess the S³ is like a fallback plan in case the United States pisses off every country on Earth and they decide to come gangbang us and they need all the males in the countries to come fight their war for them.

The Selective Service System was administered after the Vietnam war in response to eliminating the draft. The Selective Service System is technically a draft however it has never been enacted for combat since the American army is all volunteer.

There was in fact, during the last election of 2004, some fears of the Selected Service Act being activated because of the Iraq War and because various military branches were not meeting their voluntary requirements.

In answer to RPG Maker's question, the Selective Service Act is for US citizens, however according to Wikipedia, some illegals could be forced to register, however the requirements for doing so was not spelled out.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
