The military does not want criminals, they like people who have education and skills. Few children at age 18 know what direction they want to pursue, public service for a year - be it military or other service would be very beneficial to aiding maturity for youth. Colleges today generally prolong adolescence.

No, this would be a giant waste of money and resources. There is no need, there are more men and women enlisted than ever to where they're having to cut bak on enlistment benefits. Also having people who don't want to be there will cause trouble and it will get to the point where they'll have these mandated people piecing a puzzle together for a days work (the supply will exceed the demand).

1 year health screening and training, to see if they like it. No combat or tours.

 @4ZTD62Kanswered…3yrs3Y

No, however it should be an alternative to prison like it used to be.
