I've researched and googled till my fingers are blue..

In Great Britain, during WW2, did you have a draft? All I come up with is answers for the USA..

any help would be good.. just a yes or no would be good and what branches they drafted to?

Such as Medical personal..

Thanks

conscription (also known national service)- the Brit version of the draft - was put in place for WW2. (And for later part of WW1 I believe)

Try searching for conscription and you'll have more luck :)

Quick google gave me this as a start: http://www.historyonthenet.com/WW2/conscription.htm
