I have seen this category added to a biography of a scientist just because he did his mandatory national service in the 1950s (of which no details are given). Surely this is not helpful, since much of the male adult population of the UK at that time would be included; and the designation is even less meaningful in other European countries in which national service has persisted longer. Was I right to remove? JMCHutchinson (talk) 22:16, 16 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
