There is nothing in the Constitution that

therefore there is no requirement, period.

There are plenty of social "obligations" that are not defined in the
constitution. It would have been easy for me to dodge the draft by
hiding in school. I had signed an "intent" letter with the CG when I
was 17 but those are really not binding.
It could be that I took JFKs words to heart "ask what you can do for
your country".

I was cognizant of what was going on in SE Asia while I was in college
and immediately after, and felt a social obligation to speak out against
the horrors we were perpetrating there to prop up a brutal dictatorship.
I was working and obtaining a master's degree immediately after college,
and while working at The Star was offered a government position that
would have fulfilled a social obligation (agricultural assistance to
farmers) in Vietnam, but by the time I was trained and ready, the
position had been discontinued.

Gosh, all that speaking out and you still volunteered to perform your 'Vietnam
service', if you can be believed, which you can't.

'Agricultural assistance to farmers'? You knew more than the farmers? Or were you
going to simply fertilize the Kansas wheat fields with your Krausescheiße?
