i may be speaking out of my butt, but how many college kids head towards the military? i never served, maybe i should have, i like the toys

. but how many kids join the army because they have nowhere to go? do they get the cream of the US crop? my guts says no....
in wartime, it is naive to think the affluent kids will head off to fight.
i think a mandatory two year term would be a good thing. and good kids or bad, there is a certian amount of reprogramming going on.
this is a great topic.
