Why is this a problem?:
In a democracy the military is influenced by the majority through democracy.
What compulsory military training would achieve?
It would achieve awareness of military issues along with other benefits such as increased physical fitness, increased patriotism, reduced racial conflict and potentially reduced criminality.
What do you think?

well yes and no you don't have to train as an SAS or SBS to get valuable skills such as engineering/maintenance skills in aviation and as well as maritime and ground based vehicles, or you could train in medical or security or even logistics. cyber security leadership skills. there are many forms of training in the military that are better then civilian training programs.

I know a similar strategy was operated for a time, in countries such as Germany, whereby school leavers undertake a years service in support of various societal sectors. Those who wish to pursue a years military service can do so however they could also help in academic and logistical work elsewhere.

The purpose of compulsory military training is to instill knowledge of the Army, everyone could describe from experience what teachers do and most could probably also describe from experience what police, doctors and nurses do. These are all jobs where they frequently come into contact with ordinary citizens. Most people get their impression of the Army, Navy and Airforce from the media or at best, conversations with veterans.

You could do that by increasing army activity and mingling with the public, no need to train millions more soldiers.
