When I got turned down, the recruiter was telling me about his bad back, bad knees, and arthritis, but he was on his last year. In 1980, they were still doing RIF and you about had to be a perfect physical specimen to get taken. The military was trying to slim down the last of the Vietnam era personnel, so they just weren't "hiring". Even so, I still think the majority of those who do volunteer have a quality to them that is sadly lacking in the general populace.
