Answer:
1. Have former military participants to tell their stories and explain how their experiences shape them in a beneficial way.
2. Show support for young adults interested in the military. From economic aid and bonuses to academic and professional opportunities.
Explanation:
According to the article, in some regions of the United States there is a lower rate of young people interested in joining the military. This is mainly because they don't know anyone who has joined or because it seems to be a very dangerous opportunity to take on.
On the other hand, the increased rates occur in regions where joining the military seems to be a "family tradition". This also occurs because young adults have read or listened to people with a positive experience in the military. If someone only sees the "bad side" of the military on television instead of hearing it from a real perspective, it is not likely that he or she will decide to join. Also, it states in an example that, because of an economic bonus, a person decided to join. This is also important because people need economic support to continue with further studies or jobs.
Therefore, I would say that 1. Have former military participants to tell their stories and explain how their experiences shape them in a beneficial way and 2. Show support for young adults interested in the military. From economic aid and bonuses to academic and professional opportunities, would be two good strategies.
