What Defines a Military
The military is defined as a force authorized to use lethal or deadly force weapons to support the interest of the state or all of its citizens. Serving in the military comes with responsibility, pressure and much more. Although the military is not for everyone, it gives honor and much more to those who are in it. In some countries, every young person must serve two years of military service. I do not think every young person in the United States should have to serve two years in the military.
The United States military is made up of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard branches. The Army is the only branch that has ever made people go into the draft during wars. The draft was ended at some point. After the draft was ended, a volunteer army was made. This gave people a chance to make a decision of their own about joining the military.
Most people have thought about what they want to do in their lives. Some people want to attend college, become entertainers, play professional sports and some people might want to become members of the military. We are all different and we have different goals that we want to set in our lives. During high school, it is important to think about what you want to do when you graduate. That will determine what path you will start you adult life on.
It is an honor to be in the military but I think a person should be able to make their own choice about serving in the military. Even though it is mandatory in some countries that every young person must serve two years of military service, I do not think every young person in the United States should have to serve in the military. If a person is forced to do something that they do not want to do, they will not be productive or reliable. There would be no motivation and some people might become depressed if they are forced to serve in the military. On the other hand, if a person volunteers and makes their own decision, I think that person would do their best, be happy and proud of the decision they made.
In conclusion, serving in the military comes with responsibility, pressure and much more. It is an honor to be a part of the military. Some countries make every young person serve two years of military service but I do not think the United States should make every young person serve two years of military service. Every person should make their own decision when it comes to what they want to do or be in life. If a person is forced to be in the military, I do not feel that person will do their best but if someone volunteers they will do their best because serving in the military is something they want to do.
