One thing about telling 19-24 year olds NOT to do something...
I was thinking the same thing. When I got out of high school in 69 I went into the Army because I was tired of my parents telling me what to do, boy was that a wakeup call. Got off the bus at Ft Polk at about 2:00 in the morning and the yelling didn’t stop for 8 weeks. Then my dumb arse decided to go to jump school!
