Ashamed about not serving your Country?
Send money, that will help you sleep at night.
That’s how I read the story.
I guess I know too many people like that to give them that sort of credit. Greed, not guilt.
What's astonishing to me is the "factoid" in the article that the military does not WANT 75% of the 17-24-year-olds that apply nowadays...how are these "kids" being raised? That must just refer to the quality of people who actually apply...for every good one, there are 3 "dead-enders" who are "obese", uneducated (not a high school grad) or have drug history/juvenile rap sheet...
Also interesting (if true) that the "population" in the armed services is similar to the general population re: minority groups....that's not what you'd think from reading the newspapers, is it!
