Thats why we need some kind of mandatory service in time of war–



No thanks.

I have served, and while we may have hated it at times, we all knew we were there voluntarily. I would not want to have anyone by my side in combat who hadn’t volunteered for duty. We learned that lesson in Vietnam.

Besides, when the United States can no longer produce people who are willing to fight for its freedom without being forced to, then we as a nation have lost our right to exist as a free people.
