1: Emergency Manpower
Ensure preparedness and the capacity to timely provide manpower to DoD during a national emergency. Other Information:
In the event of a mobilization, the SSS will hold a national draft lottery, contact those registrants who have been selected
via the lottery, and arrange their transportation to a Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS). This procedure would be
followed for a mobilization of trained and/or untrained personnel. Once notified of the results of their evaluation at the
MEPS, any registrant who has been found qualified, may choose to file a claim for exemption, postponement, or deferment. If
a claimant is re-classified as a conscientious objector (CO), he has a requirement to serve in a non-military capacity toward
the welfare and safety of the U.S. for 24 months. The SSS will place these workers with non-military employers and track the
progress of their service.
