I am the first person in a room to bemoan stupid people breeding. I am also aware of the quality of recruits when I enlisted in the ‘80s, as well as my boy’s feedback on the pathetic level it’s degraded to.
That stated, the dichotomy between this thread and others supporting the troops is absolutely pathetic.

You didn’t know people in the 1980s who got into the military, got married in basic, moved into a house as a one or two striper, took out ridiculous loans?
I did. I remember their names, their spouses, their cars. They drove much better cars than I had as college grad, working my way up.
