The article outlines Senate Bill 3702 proposing a small regular army augmented by a large citizen army of 18 to 21 year olds. Four months of intensive training would be required, with veterans exempted, and a three year National Guard option. Training would be scheduled year round to avoid harvest conflicts, and assignments would match youths to roles best suited to them. Officers would be carefully selected to prevent abuses, with equal officer training roles across services. The plan claims lower costs than a full regular army, and suggests winter camps in the south for those on farms.
