[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]“Always” being after Vietnam.[/quote] No, "always" being ever since the country was created. [quote] And yes, 20 somethings are less interested in the military lifestyle and constant war they grew up with. They used to sign up and know there was a CHANCE they’d go to war. I lived the life for 29 years and although the training, friendship, and service are valuable, I totally understand why current young people aren’t interested.[/quote] It's not the constant war so much as the pointlessness of the wars - fought for stupid reasons, using stupid methods, with no clear plan to win. Which are what our genius national security elite with expensive Ivy degrees has repeatedly gotten us into.[/quote] Agree. They have gotten into hundreds of years of freedom. Not sure what you are complaining about. [/quote]
