Universal military training as a national service option
The editorial argues for universal military or public service training as a long term national policy. It contrasts all volunteer forces with Sweden and Switzerland style service, predicting benefits in national unity, morale, and broad participation, and suggests debate may rise before 2008 regardless of whether Bush or Kerry wins. It emphasizes inclusivity and nonpartisan merit.
