I turned 18 in 1973 also. I asked my recruiter if I should register and he
said not to worry about it.

You recruiter told you to break the law and you did? It becomes
clearer with each posting why think the way you do.

Unless they changed the law back in the 70s, in my day the law didn't require
you to register if you had volunteered and were waiting for your reporting date.
I may be wrong, but that's the way I remember it.
