[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm wondering if the posters who are supportive live in DC area or elsewhere? Because if you live elsewhere you might not be able to see that there is one huge issue with enlisting in the military (esp. - Army) in the past decade+: you have to be blind not to see very young guys with no legs, no arms, some with half of the body missing... And, obviously, many-many thousands with life-long injuries that are not so visible to the outsiders... Yes, Afganistan and Iraq are almost "over" but the time in the 80s and most of the 90s when enlisting was just one of the possible safe choices is not going to be back anytime soon... [/quote] DC Area - and I stated I would be ambivalent -plenty scared, proud, hopeful. Because, yes, I know a triple amputee who is an officer - IEDss don't know the difference between officer and enlisted.[/quote]
