ROFL! No no, they're a legit civil service :) And unlike CityYear and several other programs, it's not structured as if you're still a teenager or needing "life help" or anything like that. You are considered a professional adult college grad who is offering a year or 2 of service to your country.
I would love to see programs like AmeriCorps seriously expanded. I would not fight in a war (unless it were a much better war than currently *eyeroll*) but I would have really been committed to a different way to offer service in my 20s.
