Did Great Britain ever have a military draft??
I m not sure they ever have.
All the Brits that went over the-the-top in WW1 were volunteers.
I dont think they had a draft in WW2 either.
Tell me if I am wrong.
They impressed American seamen which was a main cause of the War of 1812.
So conscription in Great Britain was abandoned after WW2.
Why Elvis was drafted and and none of the Beatles were .
Just as well......................
So did any of the Fab 4 do the National Service thing before 1960?
(John would have been the oldest at 19 -born Oct 1940)
