I get so tired of this "I didn't join the army to be a soldier" talk. If you join the army there is a chance that at some point you could be somewhere where someone will try to kill you.

If you want skills and money for college without the risk - get a job.

Before I realized the difference between 'liberal' and conservative', I remember reading a Jessica Lynch headline of "She only wanted to go to college". So you get a freaking JOB!! And one that doesn't put you in combat!! I don't get it. In what country do you join the military and not assume you might have to actually BE in the military?
