What are the thoughts on National Service & a year in the Services just out of school? I think it is a great idea, make kids grow up & be responsible. Both male & female.

But Anna, National Service doesn't discriminate. The names are drawn from a tumbler. If your name comes up, you HAVE to do it. That's how it was in the 60's & early 70's. I'm in my 50's: I saw it all happen although not called up. And there are a lot of religiously devout followers, much more as compared to back then and they will object. So that's why it'd be futile.
