I'm not sure 'compelled' is the best label for conscripting individuals into military service. 'Forced into military service' or 'coerced into military service' might be more applicable terms. "I'm betting that if we get to that point a chicken hawk like you will be all for the compulsory service of others ..." There are, as you suggest, volunteers who have a change of heart and for which rewards and incentives may not be adequate to compel them to continue. There is a lighted tunnel out of this problem. Freedom of Conscious is a natural right to all human beings. It is a violation of human nature to be forced to perform a duty that poses a personal conflict to your conscience.
