- Jan. 13, 1941 Iola Youth to Enlist in Navy - John Edwin Colclasure, son of Arthur Colclasure of Iola, left today for St. Louis, Mo., where he will take his final examination for entrance into the Unied States Navy. He completed his preliminary physical and mental tests at Effingham with an almost perfect record and it is expected he will have little difficulty in finishing the examination. He is 18 years old.
- Jan. 13, 1941 Ordern Numbers for Clay County Draft [This list begins with 2101 so obviously there are 2100 before this list, but the submitter did not find them.) - Franck C. Colclasure
- January 1943 - the following group of men has been called by the Clay County Selective Service Board to fill the next quota: Tommy Lee Trinkle, Robert Ernest Colclasure
The U.S. officially entered World War II on 8 December 1941 following an attack on Peral Harbor, Hawaii. Just about a year before that, in October 1940, President Roosevelt had signed into law the first peacetime selective service draf in U.S. history, due to rising world conflicts. After the U.S. entered WWII a new selective service act required that all men between ages 18 and 65 register for the draft. Between November 1940 and October 1946, over 10 million American men were registered.
The Fourth Registration, often referred to as the "old man's registration," was conducted on 27 April 1942 and registered men who were born on or between 28 April 1877 and 16 February 1897 - men who were between 45 and 64 years old - and who were not already in the military. Other registrations are not available due to privacy laws.
The 2,679 men listed below gave a Clay County address as their birth place.
