Of course, you'll have to go to war and possibly die or be horribly maimed and disfigured but that's a small price to pay right?
A bargain at twice the price lol
There is no question in my mind that service would be a benefit to all young folk, if only for the personal growth that comes of it. So many these days shirk responsibility for anything including their own actions.
I voluntarily enlisted in the Army as a combat medic. I turned 27 years old in basic training lol. Little long in the tooth running with all the 18 year olds but I hung in. Now of course, I am much too old to do any military service, but I have been grateful for the experience gained during that time.
Thank you for your service, it speaks highly of your character considering your age at the time and your category (combat medic).
I was having a bit of a joke with this post to be honest, despite this recruitment initiative being tabled for real, just amusing myself I guess, but the underlying message is there and I believe in it - the compulsory service thing, I believe it will address many issues all at once.
Many thanks, and I thank you as well, for your service!
