If you want to join a branch of the armed forces where you're least
likely to see combat, join the Coast Guard.


Maybe these young potential recruits need an agent representing them
when dealing with the US Military....something like a player agent in
professional sports.....or better yet a union.



A soldiers' union; I'll bring it up at the AFL-CIO meeting in two weeks
in Chicago. I get to go for a day or maybe two, and hope to return
unbloodied.

Any soldier has the ability write his congressman about alleged improprieties.
Very few members of Congress would let such abuses go by.
