So where is it at NARA? I hate how these things never provide sources. And if they do, it's like the second one - hard to find.

Even in Israel where there's conscription some sects of ultra orthodox Jews refuse to join the army and sometimes even refuse to work at all and live on government benefits. Other Israelis hate them. It's a known problem in extreme Judaism.

According to scholar Anna Wittmann, about 72,000 young Americans applied for conscientious objector (CO) status during World War II, and many of their applications were rejected.

1943

The FBI’s nationwide arrest of draft violators reached its peak the night of May 15, as 638 men across 20 cities were seized from their homes over the weekend.

One New Yorker, John Raymond Sonnenberg, was arrested for failure to register for the draft. “I thought I might be able to stay out of the army but now that I have been caught, I am willing to serve,” he said. Sonnenberg now awaits a punishment decision at the Federal Building.

Alex Simon from Brooklyn said that he failed to appear before his local draft board for induction because he believes “the United States [doesn’t need him] to win the war.”
