This study, a compilation of public opinion data on patriotism, examines what it means to be a patriot and what people think about military service and the draft. A special section looks at young people’s attitudes on these topics. The study includes all of the latest polling data as well as important historical trends for comparative purposes.

Karlyn H. Bowman is a senior fellow at AEI.
