I still say if 18 year olds can fight and die for this country they should be allowed to drink.

That's sort of a pat saying. But when you get down to it, do we enforce the same dicipline and supervision when they have a drink in their hand as we do when it's a gun?

I'm not begrudging them anything, just pointing out the difference. Sometimes life is not fair for a reason.

I was in Armed Forces Police in NYC in '67 chasing AWOL's and Deserters, there was no discipline and no supervision, it was wild. I went back to Viet Nam it was safer.
