Excerpt from Studies in Citizenship for Recruits Any efficient Army, large or small, must be composed of men so selected, trained, and allocated that every technical and military requirement of the service is met adequately and promptly. Disciplining the men in the habit of instant obedience, training them in the manual of arms, and drilling them in close order and extended order formations is more important than ever before, in view of the large number of men involved. In addition, the individual soldier, especially in combat troops, must show mental alertness, initiative, sense of responsibility, and devotion to duty to a high degree. The trained Army technician must also have these qualities developed in accordance with the requirements of his special work. Moreover, it is important that each soldier, officer, as well as enlisted man, understands fundamental business ideals and practices; that he is considerate, fair-minded, and reliable in his dealings with others; and that he understands his obligations as a citizen and is disposed to meet those obligations with fidelity and loyalty. As a basis for faithful and loyal service the enlisted man should know: 1. How to speak, write, and read simple English with understanding. 2. His duties as a soldier and citizen. 3. Enough of the long struggle for liberty to understand its meaning and to appreciate its value. 4. Enough of the sacrifices and achievements of America to inspire loyalty to the country and to the service. 5. Enough about human interdependence to inspire his disposition to act honestly, industriously, reliably, cooperatively, and thriftily. 6. Enough about current national and international problems to enable him to act intelligently in the discharge of his duties. 7. Enough about the mechanism of the American Government to understand his place and responsibilities in it. This course for enlisted men is designed to give them such knowledge and understanding of the army and the country it serves as will help them to perform their duties with intelligence and dependable loyalty.

Which citizens have fought America's wars? Which ones should fight in the future, and how should they be recruited? Should military or other national service be an obligation for every citizen? David Segal's probing look at the complex issues behind these questions tells us much about the changing manpower needs of our armed forces and about the evolution of civil-military relations in the United States. Segal analyzes the mobilization, contributions, and limitations of drafted, reservist, and volunteer forces from the early days of the republic to the present. In the process, he shows how Americans have come to separate the benefits of citizenship from service to their country. Symptomatic of this separation is the current reliance on an all-volunteer military, a system that treats military service more as an occupation and opportunity for self-advancement than as a civic duty and obligation. Drawing on a vast interdisciplinary literature in American history, sociology, political science, and economics, Segal illuminates the ways demographics, weapons technology, international relations, scientific management, and social policies have all affected the composition of America's armed forces. He also shows how the military anticipated and expanded the American welfare system and played a pivotal role in creating better opportunities for minorities and women. The capabilities and performance of U.S. armed forces in future conflicts will depend on a thorough understanding of and informed response to the crucial manpower issues Segal discusses. His thoughtful study should be required reading for military professionals and policymakers and will be of interest to anyone concerned about the future of this country's armed forces.

Since the 1990s, Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) programs have experienced unprecedented expansion in American public schools. The program and its proliferation in poor, urban schools districts with large numbers of Latina/o and African American students is not without controversy. Public support is often based on the belief that the program provides much-needed discipline for "at risk" youth. Meanwhile, critics of JROTC argue that the program is a recruiting tool for the U.S. military and is yet another example of an increasingly punitive climate that disproportionately affect youth of color in American public schools. Citizen, Student, Soldier intervenes in these debates, providing critical ethnographic attention to understanding the motivations, aspirations, and experiences of students who participate in increasing numbers in JROTC programs. These students have complex reasons for their participation, reasons that challenge the reductive idea that they are either dangerous youths who need discipline or victims being exploited by a predatory program. Rather, their participation is informed by their marginal economic position in the local political economy, as well as their desire to be regarded as full citizens, both locally and nationally. Citizenship is one of the central concerns guiding the JROTC curriculum; this book explores ethnographically how students understand and enact different visions of citizenship and grounds these understandings in local and national political economic contexts. It also highlights the ideological, social and cultural conditions of Latina/o youth and their families who both participate in and are enmeshed in vigorous debates about citizenship, obligation, social opportunity, militarism and, ultimately, the American Dream.
