Military Service is currently not required in Germany. Between 1956 and 2011 service men were required to serve at least 6 months in the service.
@9CNX5FSAlliance ’90/Greens10mos10MO
Yes, but with the option to work in a social service instead, like a hospital.
@9BPCVKK12mos12MO
Civil service yes, military service no
Every adult should learn how to use a gun and militia tactics.
Yes only 18 year old males.
@99NYQ2X1yr1Y
No, however every 18 year old citizen should be required to sign up for a draft
@99JHH2R1yr1Y
Yes, but other types of nonviolent civil service should also be acceptable.
@99J648G1yr1Y
Maybe, I would just insist on being allowed to be a conscientious objector within said service.
@99CXKXF1yr1Y
Every 18 year old citizen should be required to fulfill one year of national service, of which military service should be an option.
Yes but with non-combat training options for conscientious objectors.
@99C5HJJ1yr1Y
Yes, but it should be more skill development and education based, but you can apply for exemptions
@999PNHC1yr1Y
Yes but allow all social and cultural services as potential institutions.
Yes for everyone who wants to go to university
Yes, but less than a full year service
@96B977PFree Democratic2yrs2Y
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.
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.
@8V6XYSB3yrs3Y
Yes, and some must serve their entire lives
@8V6XRHG3yrs3Y
Environmental and/or social service, not military.
@8V4K5LK3yrs3Y
Not forced but part of full citizenship, including voting.
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.
@8LSW2WV3yrs3Y
Yes, and make it permanent for some
Perhaps, but only for civil services not military.
@8CM6DHC4yrs4Y
Yes, and some should serve for life

@spaceUnicorn0182yrs2Y
Yes, but only because the country is currently in a complicated geopolitical situation
@93T2Z952yrs2Y
Yes, they should be required to provide at least 2 years, but only in the reserves, which includes mandatory boot camp and training.
Deleted2yrs2Y
Yes, but also include First Responder as an alternative to military service
@93BW4X42yrs2Y
Citizens should be required to provide service in some form, but not required military service.
@92ZYZRW2yrs2Y
There should be two years of mandatory service or 4 years and immunity to the draft or further conscription.
@9334YP32yrs2Y
No, every citizen should be armed and receive training however.
@LiamHal786386402yrs2Y
Yes but make combat roles optional

@8ZRVN7J2yrs2Y
No, service should be a choice. The people we'd be mandating to serve would do more harm than good.
@8ZGR65P2yrs2Y
no unless they are able to drink and or smoke after
@8Y6XX9F2yrs2Y
Yes, I believe it will benefit society.
@8YT8Q572yrs2Y
Those physically and mentally able should but those who arent shouldnt
