I think not only should both sexes be required to sign up but both should do mandatory 2 years of service right out of high school. It could even be set up so that the best and brightest do the military work and the rest do Peace Corps type stuff - all in country though. Israel has the right idea.
It wouldn't work here. The country is way too big to support a military with that many people in it. Hell, the government can't afford the military personnel we have now. I can't imagine how much it would cost to support a military with millions of people on active duty.

At the very least, if such a program is to be done, it ought to be done by the states. It's almost as if our intended form of government allows for experimentation for what can work!
