If it sounds about right to you, then I suspect that you are going to run right down and enlist...right?
But seriously, you talk about the "private sector". The same training you talk about here is the same thing that happens in the private sector. If a kid is just right out of school, the company they work for could be spending 10's of thousands to train them. With no or only a minimum requirement. I've been with a couple of companies that if they paid for special training they would require you to stay with the company for 6-12 months after the training. Nowhere near 8 years.
I spent 24 years in uniform, plus 7 more years in the AOR as a contractor. So 31 years total and counting.
I would do it all again, no questions asked. I’d even laugh at the DEI nonsense they have going on today, then ignore it and get back to work.
The thread title is quite misleading, I wonder why it was phrased that way?
From the article below, "active duty" Space Force will include the new "not on sustained duty” part-time classification. So that may be part of the recruiting proposition.
Air Force pilots are required to serve 10 years AFTER completing training. My cousin's kid is a nuclear operator in the Navy and had to sign up for 6 years. I am sure many other military occupations require extended service commitments.
Apparently, the Space Force requires a lot of training so they would like to retain people. I see nothing wrong with this. If a kid wants the training they will agree. I don't imagine being in the Space Force would be as hard a life as an infantryman so eight years would be a walk in the park. I wonder if they ever face "deployment"?

In 1975, those that wanted certain job titles under "Electronics" had to sign up for 6 years of active duty for the Air Force.
As far as "training and experience", if you haven't been in the military, you need to understand that many only do a very small part of the entire job, thus only know and have experience in that area. Probably the best field to take with one when they leave the military is "cooking". Also, many jobs don't need nearly as many of a higher rank, so they would need to lock some out of being promoted, as the lower ranks are the real workers, and we need them.
This is just another attempt at the Biden Administration at allowing these military age men, for whom we have no background info except from the moment they invaded our country from 160 foreign countries, to join the military to earn citizenship. Say NO to that! Seriously, do you want to train and arm our foreign enemies? I suppose that would draw more in for the military training to take back to their 3rd world dive.
