I will debate that the vast majority of men who get cut as adult do so purely by choice. I think there is a big silent majority who got cut because of foreskin problems.
Of males with foreskin problems, those who have never been able to retract foreskin will have a certain opinion of their post circ performance, while those who used to have fully functioning foreskin but developped phimosis rapidly in a couple of years may have another opinion as they woudl rememeber life with a functioning foreksin.
Then there are males who choose to get circumcised despite foreksin problems. Of those, there are some with redundant foreskins, and those with normal or short foreskins. So even between those groups the opinions would be different.
I have yet to see some valid satistics on post circumcision that would help any one individual decide based on his condition and life experience. And then, you have to look at the outcome of the circumcision (partial, loose, medium, tight) because that will also affect how one masturbates and whether that outcome was desired by the male or whether the male had desired a different type of circ.
Forced army circs may have happened, or may have been just recommendations that the guys accepted, perhaps under peer pressure. But I don't recall seeing any authoritative army declaration that men HAD to be circumcised.
