Hehehe.

You've really got to have no choices at all to join the military these
days.




Hehehe yourself, bud.

Harry, I sincerely invite you to visit a modern military base or
installation and witness for yourself what the caliber of most of these
young men and women are. I have. And I was blown away. With few exceptions,
these are the brightest, best trained, committed and professional group of
people I have seen in many years of both military and civilian management
experience.

Use your "journalist" credentials or attend an open house on a ship or other
military base. Talk to the enlisted guys and gals. Talk to the junior
officers. Ask them about their jobs and what they do. And ask them why they
do it.

You are in for a big surprise, my friend.
