Should military service be mandatory?

I stand on the other side of this issue so you deserve an explanation. We all need to serve and should be trained to do our duty when called upon. After the training and when we find our skills developed then everyone knows how to make your service meet the needs of our nation. All Americans should have respect for the people in our past that have sacrificed to keep the freedoms we all share. We should all do our part to protect what is dear to America. To fight for freedom does not require battle time if it comes to that point we have failed to do our part up to that point.
