I love my 24/7 subscription, and I could see where the soldiers would enjoy it, also. I don't think it's a bad idea, although certainly you wouldn't have to give them a Limbaugh 24/7 ... Maybe they'd like to be able to subscribe to the NY Times online ... LOL
You can always buy a second one and email the additional account number and password to a bunch of soldiers. Figure one subscription can service ten or more soldiers.
