wartime service
Conflict-era enlistment
Wartime service is military duty performed during a period of armed conflict.
The phrase appears in contexts of veterans' benefits, pensions, and historical recognition: His wartime service in the Pacific earned him two medals.
It may also refer more broadly to civilian contributions during war—factory work, nursing, or other support roles.
