I fully believe as Heinlein did in that story. If you serve, you were
willing to put your life on the line, so you deserve the rights and
privileges. I think it also should entail all the socialist goodies
such as health care, pensions, education, and any other goodies to
show appreciation.

Ever read Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers?
A citizen was somebody who had served in the military, and only
citizens could vote. There were no limits on who could serve in the
military, for denying them because of age, health, or gender would
be denying them the rights of citizenship.
