MILITARY SERVICE REQUIREMENTS

From what I can see of various encounters in Iraq/Afghanistan, people in support roles can be thrust into battle conditions pretty quickly.   I'm specifically thinking of one woman who was just a a driver in a convoy when they came under attack and attacks into things like the Green Zone.   I agree with the Marines, "Every Marine a Rifleman".   If you can't do basic warrior skills, you shouldn't be in a war zone.   Things can happen quickly and unexpectedly. 

If you're talking about putting them in positions in CONUS or allied countries, that would be okay except flexibility is a good thing.   If you need an X, it would be nice if X could be stationed anywhere versus just places where it's safe.

If people who can't meet military requirements want to serve, there's always DOD civil service.  It's what I ended up doing.
