Yes, but other types of nonviolent civil service should also be acceptable.

Maybe, I would just insist on being allowed to be a conscientious objector within said service.

 @99CXKXFfrom Arkansas answered…1yr1Y

Every 18 year old citizen should be required to fulfill one year of national service, of which military service should be an option.

 @99C5Q6SLeftfrom New Jersey answered…1yr1Y

Yes but with non-combat training options for conscientious objectors.

 @99C5HJJfrom California answered…1yr1Y

 @96B977PFree Democraticanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes but with an option to serve not just in the military but also in social services like school or medical centers

Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment and are not suffering from a disability, be it mental or physical.

 @8V7GCQDLeftanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but there has to be a choice between military and civil service, as it already existed before 2011. Furthermore, if implemented, it has to be mandatory for men and women.

An intensive 5-6 boot camp would suffice, along with continued training every year in order to ensure disciplined and qualified reserves.

Yes, but only for a few months. Not a whole year, and more focus on education and skill development.

How do you think mandatory military service at 18 could affect the sense of national identity and unity among young people?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Can you imagine benefits in personal growth from compulsory military service, or do you believe it would be an unnecessary hardship?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

If you had to serve for a year, which skills would you hope to gain from the military that could be beneficial in civilian life?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO
