Also part of Selective Service is a field structure of military Reservists and civilian volunteer board members. Each state, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories also have a state director. Selective Service's Reservists, board members, and state directors are the Agency's standby components. They serve part-time for the Agency, remaining trained and ready to be called into service in the event of a draft.
