As I remember it the UMT and Service Act either supplemented or replaced the so-called "Draft." It required that all males were to serve in some capacity for periods of time that depended upon the branch of the service. For two years active duty in the US Army or Marines the requirement was satisfied (I believe) in full although there may have been some ongoing "Reserve" status that followed. If the branch was the US Air Force the period was four years active duty and, once again it might have included additional time in the Reserves. If one chose either the Air or Army National Guard the time of service was something like seven years. I was "inducted" into this program in 1952 as a senior in high school and was a member of the Air National Guard. At the time there was a clear distinction between the Reserves and the National Guard, but I don't recall the precise difference except that it seems the Reserves did not do additional military training whereas the National Guard did. My tenure in the National Guard was interrupted periodically when I moved from one state to another but ultimately I accumulated over 20 years service and was finally discharged formally at age 65. Initially I didn't like the program but I grew to like being in the Guard and a sense of returning something to the country. I think something like it is needed today. I sense a general feeling more of expected entitlements other than contributing in some way.
