“Not so sure I want to serve with people who settle on the service as a last resort. Sort of like well I never wanted to go into the military, but I cant find any other work. Thats not the type of people I want to serve with IMHO.”
My response....
In 1957, I graduated from a small High School in a small town in East Tennessee. My family was poor, college was not in my future and there was no prospects for meaningful work.
Since I had no car, I hitch-hiked 12 miles to a recruiters office so I could join the Navy.
I could go on and on about the Avionics technical schools I completed and the BS degree I worked hard for.
If I am not the type of people you would want to serve with, you sir have a problem.
I take offence to your statement and you have no clue about what the hell you are talking about.
G’day
