My best friend in college, who I met in the College Republicans campaigning for Reagan, joined the Navy as the most conservative right winger possible and emerged as a liberal. He got a masters in public administration and went to work for the state of New Mexico and was last seen supporting Bill Richardson. I never let him forget he's the only person i've ever heard of who became a Democrat after joining the military. He was in subs, too, so it's not like he had some wussey job.
