In World War 2 men came home one of three ways. Wounded, dead or when the war was over. After Pearl Harbor the draft was mute because men signed up by the droves. It is in Viet Nam that the draft became the means to man the army.

The age of the enlistment of men in World War 2 was 18 years old. However, many young men under 18, doctored documents so they could join the military before they were 18.
Officially from December 7, 1941 to September 2, 1945. However some combat continued long after September 2, 1945 as some units (especially Japanese) refused to accept that the war was over.

AnswerI'm pretty sure the enlistment age was 17, but it may be 18. I have read stories of boys who were 15 years old, but the military didn't know that.well im not going to improve the answer, i just wanna say that if u answer a question with an answer your not sure about, then you may aswell not answer at all. some of us need straight answers and may as well make up an answer if this is all people can come up with.
the enlistment age for the Australian army is and has always been 18 years and you have to be 19 to serve overseas, you could join at 15 to become an army apprentice but this was a non combatant role. this was not always enforced to the letter of the law as birth certificates were no always required so many younger people put up their age to serve, the youngest being a boy of 14 years 9 months on enlistment in WW1.
