If you want to serve however, don't fool yourself into thinking you must join the military to do it.
Become an EMT, or a nurse. Customs agent or harbor patrol, DEA, FEMA, etc.
I am sure there's many ways for you to serve our country in a way that you are comfortable with.
Is this what you want for your sister or daughter?
What is wrong with a country where millions of fit and able 180 pound college age boys are lounging around at home drinking beer and watching MTV, while 120 pound young ladies are going to war and are being captured, raped and tortured????
In some fairy tale war, there is a clean front line with the support troops safely behind it. In today's Iraq war, there is never going to be a safe rear area, and our women soldiers will always be vulberable to being captured, raped and tortured. It is wrong to send them into this environment while millions of 20 year old boys lie around at home getting drunk.
A nation which sees no problem with sending its future mothers to war to be captured, raped and tortured while millions of strong young men don't give a crap, is a nation on its way down.
