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 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. John filled out a draft card for World War II on 16 October 1940 (at age 29), while living at 160 Chestnut Street, Montclair, Essex, New Jersey. He was listed as self employed.4

     John married Agnes V. Nugent in 1955, at New Jersey.5,6
