Conscription ceased in 1967 for a good reason. Modern weapons were seen as superior to large forces. Equip them properly first, improve the offer not this. The standard will be poor and lead to more war crimes as we see currently with forces that utilise inexperienced or necessarily professional soldiers. If we move to a world war then everyone will be called up anyway.
