"I was put into the lottery system and got 86. If the war had continued as it had, I was sure to go."

Yup. IIRC, the year before they went up to 125.

Now, if they require women to register for the draft (uh-huh, been waiting for more than 30 years for the libbers to make that happen), the size of the pool would double and only half as many guys would be tapped for the honor.
