Yes. That applies after you have volunteered to be bound by it in the current military.
The draft register is still around but the draft itself was eliminated in 1973 (or thereabouts). So, that U.S. military force propping up NATO and facing down the U.S.S.R. during Reagan's saber-rattling in the 1980s? ALL VOLUNTEER, believe it or not.
Also interesting is that Milton Friedman considered his role in ending the draft his proudest achievement.
Friedman had no qualms about describing himself as a libertarian and not a conservative, and his influence in the Reagan administration was considerable, even outside of economics.
I find it strange that so many conservatives admire Reagan as their ultimate hero, but ignore any libertarian influence in his administration.
It's surprisingly easy to get back out of the military, if you really want to. You just have to be willing to deal with a general or other-than-honorable discharge.
