[email protected] Nancy, I don't know about WWII, but the World War I Draft Registration Cards cover the entire United States--a nationwide collection. WWI had three drafts June 5, 1917, Jun & Aug 1918, Sep 12, 1918. The information contained was not always the same. They all show the registrant's name, address, birthdate, citizenship, employer, physical description, date and location of registration, and best of all, the signature of your ancestor. Copies can be obtained by writing to the THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES--SOUTHEAST REGION 1557 ST. JOSEPH AVENUE EAST POINT, GA 30344 Send a "World War I Registration Card Request" form and $6.00 to the above address. I would imagine a letter would do as well. Hope this helps.
