I believe it could have a positive impact on our lost youth, creates discipline and valuable traits that would carry on to their adult hood. Offer a skill trade to boot.

As we begin to transistion in to a Peacetime Force

 

I personally feel that a majority of the upstanding and mature youth of today are being steered away from military service due to an overwhelmingly negative public opinion, due to the 13+ years of war.... 

 

I think that every able bodied youth 17-21 should serve 2 years.

 

With the several different services and endless career choices, I also see it as a way of preparing the youth for the future.

 

Adjustments to entitlements awarded due to satisfactory service would need to be made.  ( MGIB, VA and others.....)

 

I am wondering what are the thoughts of others here?

 

 

Join nearly 2 million former and current members of the US military, just like you.
