Após a leitura do texto abaixo (www.fae.pt/s_militar.htm), entendi que a \"inspecção militar\" é um processo de selecção dos alistados, veja:

\"Recenseamento militar

O recenseamento militar dos indivíduos do sexo masculino é obrigatório, devendo ser efectuado na câmara municipal ou posto consular (se residirem no estrangeiro) durante o mês de Janeiro do ano em que completem 18 anos.

Quem não se recensear nessa altura, dispõe de mais 30 dias para fazê-lo no centro de recrutamento da sua área de residência. Se faltar sem apresentar justificação no prazo legal, é considerado faltoso, ficando sujeito a uma punição com prisão até seis meses ou multa até 80 dias. Além disso, será convocado para as provas de classificação e selecção na época própria e integrado no contingente anual a que pertence.


Provas de classificação e selecção

Os indivíduos recenseados serão convocados para a inspecção militar com uma antecedência mínima de 40 dias através de edital afixado na junta de freguesia, durante a primeira semana de Setembro.

No caso de não ser concedido adiamento de inspecção aos indivíduos que o solicitaram, o seu nome constará nos editais adicionais, na primeira semana de Março do ano em que cesse o adiamento.\"

Neste caso, em lugar de \"military service\", melhor usar \"selection for military service\", como no exemplo a seguir:

WWI Draft Reg Registration-pt 3
... Selection for military service was based on an assigned registration number -- not age -- so it is unclear what motivation may have existed in most cases for ...

Assim, a expressão toda ficará:

THE YOUNGSTERS WHO UNDERGO SELECTION FOR MILITARY SERVICE

Aqui está a definição de \"youngster\" (sinônimo de \"young person\"):

Webster\'s 1913 Dictionary

Definition: \\Young\"ster\\, n.
A young person; a youngling; a lad. [Colloq.] ``He felt
himself quite a youngster, with a long life before him.\'\'

neutral  Geraldo Quintas: Sim, tens razão, não é 'serviço militar' mas sim uma 'inspecção' a que TODOS os portugueses masculinos são obrigados. 'Selection for military service' poderá servir, não me soa bem mas, de momento, não me ocorre melhor. 'Military checkup'?
6 hrs
  -> Obrigado, spot, mas é uma inspecção com finalidade de selecção. Acredito que "selection for military service" descreva melhor o processo do que "military checkup", que pode ter muitos significados.

agree  Joao Vieira: Penso que "selection" será a melhor. A inspecção é feita para verificar se o indivíduo é apto para o serviço militar obrigatório.
