I disagree.

Those of us who served want only those who WANT to serve with us.
If they don't want us, we don't want them.

Ditto, although my usual respone includes "NO!, NO!, and HELL NO!"

I agree. What I would like to see is a period of required service to the nation, that everyone would grow up expecting, but which could take other forms than military. I think that a lot of people would want the military option if they had to do some form of service, but currently do not choose any form of service. Whether such people would meet your definition of WANTING to serve with you, I don't know.
