Of course, National Service could also be more broadly defined. No reason why those young folks couldn't be put to work cleaning and restoring parks and other sites of interest.
As my sister said when one of my nephews dropped out of university, there's nothing quite as useful as a year or two in a really dull job to help develop the motivation for education!
