Agreed also, I found myself at a crossroads in life in my early 20s. I was doing drugs, in a very low place. I'd been brought up well by my very busy parents and felt constantly I was letting myself down and them. Despite all that it appeared that I was going to continue on this road of destruction.
I remember distinctly passing by the forces career office on the high street one day and thought to go in and talk to them. I'd felt it wasnt for me, then after a series of quick, unfortunate events, where I'd almost really gotten myself into a no return situation, I decided to sign up.
I then spent 23 years serving honourably, saving perhaps thousands of lives as part of the medical service in the forces. Got myself properly educated to masters level, married a lovely girl and had 2 boys, living in my own home which is now mortgage free at 47.
As much as I didnt want to join the forces whatsoever, it was the single best thing I've ever done and has turned not just my life round, but many others.
I wholeheartedly agree that national service might provide the younger generations coming up with an "alternative" to nihilism and selfish behaviour. Particularly the poorer in society with little or no other way.
