McChrystal Suggests a Cyber-Service Corps
Jeff John Roberts, Fortune July 24, 2017


McChrystal said two-thirds of young people are ineligible to serve in the military (due to drug tests and other restrictions), while Teach for America has become as hard to get into as Yale. In other words, there is a yawning gap between the number of people who would like to serve their country and the slots for them to do so. This outcome is a loss for everyone.

McChrystal said the way to address this is to create more opportunities to serve. And although he didn't cite cyber security as a specific example, a term of government cyber-service could be an ideal way—given the crisis posed by insecure computer systems—for young people to both serve the country and gain work and life experience.
