Bang on
Personally I would have hated to serve with ultra religious Jews, all those rules
I can however only speak for myself.
But I guess they would have their units, probably non combatant in admin, the shekem (army shop) etc.
It's kinda hard to win a fire fight when you have to pray in the middle of it.
But yeah they should do something in the form of national service.

Yeah 'cause shooting people is far more reasonable than praying.
