My son is in Trig and Physics this year and a plethora of advanced electives as a junior in high school. He is joining delayed entry next year; not because he has no options but because he wants to serve. He will be the fifth generation of my family to serve. As he stands today (far more disciplined and advanced in maturity than any of his peers) he will be an awesome force to deal with once he exits the Marines let alone what he does inside the Corps.
Godspeed to all the men and women of this country that wear the uniform currently and are working hard to wear it in their near futures.
Many Fortune 1000 and other CEOs are military veterans.
