Military service could be great, it would allow heavy shitlording, that's the beauty here, you can make people cry but convince them it's for their own good otherwise their life is in danger, no bullshit. Excellent in many EU countries, because they are small and can easily point to Russia, and history, and convince the population that national service is a good idea. But would this fly in US where invasion is not a threat? If I remember the news correctly US is lowering physical standards even among their professional army.
