Vietnam War Draft 1970 - Drawing Birthdays Live

Imagine being 19 years old and watching live on TV to see if your birthday will be picked to fight in the Vietnam war
The 1969 draft lotteries were two lotteries conducted by the Selective Service System of the United States on December 1 1969, to determine the order of conscription to military service in the Vietnam War in 1970. It was the first time a lottery system had been used to select men for military service in the US since 1942, and established the priority of call based on the birth dates of registrants born between January 1 1944 to December 31 1950.
