Rejected petition National service/ peacecore for young people 16-19 not to be sent to war but to help with disasters, unrest and famin

More details

I would like to see national service/peacecore for our young people. I dont feel that they should go to war, but could be a valuable addition to our country to help other's, during times of flood, civil unrest and disaster, in this country and others across the world. I feel that the young people would be given direction in life and given positive life experiences.
