Selective Service - Do you really need to register?

[Devlyn]

The military isn't for everyone, but I enjoyed my 6 years and I enjoyed the 4 years of paid college.  I think everyone, male and female and non-gender conforming and everything in between regardless of sexual orientation, should be made to do at minimum 2 years of service.

Once you're done with those two years you'll feel one of two ways: Hate the establishment even more because you lack the intestinal fortitude to adapt and overcome the unique challenges that life presents, or you'll have far more respect for your freedoms and for those who defend them.

Sign up, write your congressman/woman so that you can express how you feel about it, and get it over with.

+1 for that!

Hugs, Devlyn

I wish I was military but I had LE service which was similar in some respects and I still miss those days. I worked with a lot of ex military people, plus my brother is an officer in the navy and enjoys the life. I always enjoy visiting bases with him. I am always in awe of the military and the sheer power and technology they have. Despite the bad press I think the military does a ton of good. He was hoping to go go Korea with me but is being deployed. Ah well.

Sorry, Nikki, I can't agree with you. I want my country defended by people who want to be doing that.
