My step-son will soon be turning 17. Because of our concern that he could be conscripted this year we are staying in the USA and not traveling to Russia on holiday like last year. However my wife has found information online that he still needs to register somehow with the army to prove that he is still in school and has a US green card. Is anyone familiar with this requirement? Is this something that can be done by mail or through the local consulate or embassy? Obviously he could do that by returning to Russia but that would involve some risk, however small, of conscription. Any experience any VJ members have with children this age and the military draft would be much appreciated! Thanks!
