Guess I tend to look for the good.
The military doesn't recruit us old farts.
In light of 9/11, maybe that is so, and if so, good. Before 9/11, the few I'd seen who enlisted or were in ROTC were there for the scholarship or other monetary incentive, or otherwise were drifters with no direction and just decided it was "the thing to do" in that condition. I'm still skeptical of my contemporaries.
