As a member of President Carter’s NDU Study Team which was sent to “study” NATO and the Organization for Cooperation and Security in Europe, I asked the head of the Communist Party in France (which seemed powerful enough to take a deciding part in the government during their next election) what they would do about Conscription if they came to power? Without hesitation he responded: “It will absolutely continue! Without it we would end up with a generation that would not know how to wake up in the morning, and that would be without discipline!” Bless his pea-picking red communist heart! He knew exactly what he was talking about!
