That’s nonsensical. The top in the military are still going to be career soldiers either way. The officers aren’t going to be those forced to serve a single term. Your idea would just lead to a huge deficit of education and would only serve to empower reactionaries
Historically professional army was always a reactionary force, while conscription tended to instill class consiousness into soldiers. And the top in the military will rise out of bottom, and we need to ensure that the bottom in the military wouldn't be alienated from the majority of society.
