how many are in the military

By your question, I assume you already know that Mormons and Jews are not big on the American military.

My father and stepfather both served in the military and are Jewish. My father died of a service related injury.

“By your question, I assume you already know that Mormons and Jews are not big on the American military.”

My uncle, a lifelong Mormon, retired with 27 yrs. service in the US Army. His son-in-law, likewise a lifelong Mormon, retired from the Army as well.

My Dad, a Mormon at the time, won a Purple Heart during his Marine Corp service. (later left the church)

Those 3 people were volunteers, not conscripts.

Sweeping generalizations like yours, aim to discredit entire groups.

How do you advance conservatism, by criticizing conservative groups?
