Can you imagine if the young people in the military finally figure out what is going on..... A revolt in the ranks has happened before and in this scenario...shouldn't be unexpected. The young people in *our* military, contrary to the opinions of Harry, know what is 'going on'. They joined the military because they felt the benefits were worth the risks. A lot of youngsters join the military because they are poorly educated, have no job prospects, or are lied to by recruiters, or any combination of all three. In the days of the draft, there were some underachievers who stayed in the military after their period of conscription was up because they knew they couldn't make it in the real world. By the way, why are you using a tagline you attribute to my initials containing a statement I never uttered or implied? Does that have something to do with the code of honor you learned and practiced in your Army career? They join the military because they feel the benefits outweigh the risks. Many join because of patriotism, or a sense of duty......fortunately there are far more liek that than the "hate america" ilk like harry For them, the benefit is the feeling of patriotism or fulfillment they receive for serving. This latest anti-military post from Harry is just another example of his anti-military bias, especially against any who may have been drafted. He fails to remember that most folks had jobs *when* they were drafted! -- John H "It's *not* a baby kicking, bride of mine, it's just a fetus!" Hypocrital Liberal |
