Voluntary Military Service
Voluntary military service is when individuals choose to join the armed forces of their country without being required by law. Participants undergo training to develop skills and prepare for defense duties. It is driven by personal commitment, patriotism, or career interest, and often includes benefits like salary, education opportunities, or healthcare. Unlike conscription or draft, voluntary service depends on personal decision, making it a form of civic participation through employment in national defense. Many countries rely on volunteers to maintain a well-trained military force and ensure national security.
