    1. RE: Draft Cards
    2. May not be, there is an enlistment card that was generated and is being used as an indexing card by the Nat. Archives. I'm not sure that it is called an 'enlistment card' or 'draft card'.

With that info, you can apply to the National Archives for their military or pension records.
