The US military is a mostly volunteer force composed of otherwise ordinary people.
They are us, and we love them for it.

I'll do that, I'll probably join as a doctor there, but I want to like work in the field with the soldiers, not sit around bases you know.

@tylerchu
juveniles of a certain age that commit certain crimes are given the choice of jail time or service in the military. Many choose the military.

Indeed? Interesting.
But that's still technically "voluntary" isn't it?

personally i would consider it a choice between jail and conscription.

What? It's a choice between prison and army. Conscription is the drafting of people to join the army, legally forcing them to.
