Which military? Because at one point a few generations prior it was one of the only ways to be an upstanding member of the community. Everybody served.
Today they'd be rolling over in their graves. If they saw what they fought for has become.
Topically, hasn't he backtracked his remark, apparently it's raining on Wednesday.
After my Great Grandfather came back from WWI it became family legacy to keep the kids out of the military. As the story goes, the second he came back he got rid of his gun, insisted to never have one in the house, never spoke about the war or visited a doctor again. Said they all "guessed" at their job. He succumbed to diabetes in 1968.
That's not to say he abhored guns, he just didn't want one in the house. My father owns a gun store.
If most served, it didn't stop until the draft was cancelled. Varies in quite a few nations when that point is. Many still have national service. America the 70s? Was society better then, than it is now? It wasn't quite a rich man's war if you all did the same conscription. So what did he fight for?
If society still had national service, would it have such a peaking divide? Would it have the influx of immigration? Would it have today's corps? Would people be more or less educated? Would it have the same crime rates?
Factually service, isn't it also in the constitution, bettered society.
