Can't see regular squaddies being too happy about that. Besides, do you really think that taking these ***** and teaching them how to fight/kill is a good idea?
But the military wouldn't want them these days. Since all the cuts spaces are limited and they can be picky about who they take. They won't want stabby chavs.
National service doesn't necessarily have to be military IMO. Could use them in large scale projects in some capacity, I'm sure. As long as there is some structure to encourage discipline.
I don't even know how you would enforce it - only on NEETS? Do that and the scummers will enroll on any old courses just to get out of it. Do you excuse people with certain grades? It's all a bit complex and seems unfair on the hard working kids who just want to get on.
