Thanks to Shona for inspring this question!
The USA does not have a draft, but the USA does require all males age 18 to 26 to register, including illegal immigrants. This is known as Selective Service. Please see the Selective Service System Web site at www.sss.gov.
There is one exception: lawful non-immigrants do not need to register. However, you do need to register if, between the ages 18 and 26, you ever violate your status (for instance by dropping out of school or by losing your job as an H-1B).
