RE: National Service

February 9, 2017 at 11:07 am (This post was last modified: February 9, 2017 at 11:08 am by Alex K.)

Germany had this type of mandatory service for men until a few years ago. Either Military or social type work. It worked great, and the young "civil servants" were an important corner stone of social sevices and care for the elderly. I myself got a 3 month medical education and worked as a paramedic assistant/ambulance driver during my service.

The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
