Explanation
The Vietnam War era brought major changes in the United States. The draft ended in 1973, and the 26th Amendment lowered the voting age from 21 to 18 in 1971, partly amid arguments that young people old enough to be drafted should be able to vote. These are “The mandatory draft ended” and “The voting age was lowered to 18.”
