Exciting and heroic.

Explanation:

All the propaganda created during war times aims the young people, promoting a different point of view about the war. It's not something bad, but heroic, exciting, something that young people would like to do. The objective was to bring as many people as possible, and the war efforts tried to urge the youth compulsion, anxiety and strength and put all this effort into war. The better way was to show that they would return as a hero.
