My opinion in this situation is that mandatory service should not be required for all U.S. citizens before the age of 30‚ because people should be able to do what they want.

Volunteering comes from the hearts of those who serve; not from

Malaysia until I received the letter. I wanted to escape from National Service badly because I heard from many people that life during National Service is not fun.

Vaccines are meant to help prevent and stop the spread of these viruses to others. It is not fair to those who are medically sensitive and have a suppressed immune system be exposed to these unvaccinated individuals because of their personal beliefs. Many parents do not want to vaccinate their children because they think
