What was the length of service for Drafted service men? Also was it extended in times of crisis? And you have a right of appeal against this "Request"?

bedstor, there is currently no draft in the United States Military

Ok I'll rephrase/edit the questions to "When the Draft was in operation.." to make them valid again

The military has the option of not releasing enlisted men during times of crisis, and even of recalling those whose terms of service have ended within the last year or two. Such callups are going on now.

There are some appeals going on, but the conditions are clearly stated at the beginning of ones service, and, as far as I know, the chances of successfully appealing such a decision are remote.
