![]() | I love military commercials.army of one,etc..
These are ridiculous. They show soldiers mountain climbing, riding horseback, manning tanks, looking at radars and make it seem so happy go lucky. What they dont tell you is you will be sent to a country for reasons you are unaware of to protect our freedom. It kills me how they prey on young, poor kids, hand em a helmet, an m-16, and fatigues, and ............Run along boy..

Millitarys throught history have prayed upon the poor, and undereducated to fill their ranks. They are doing nothing today that the Romans were'nt doing thousands of years ago.

And it has, since before the Romans, been a method of advancement based on merit rather than on one's luck at birth. | |

there are a few exceptions to this. WWI for example. the ranks were filled with the best and the brightest that Europe had to offer.... and a whole generation of them were essentially wiped out....

Nor did I say it was right or wrong. It is however, a very common and often succesful way for someone who grew up in poverty to get the hell out of the condition. | |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Generation a war easily overlooked - and it shouldn't be - if one wants the horror of war to frighten people away from deciding to fight..... look at this conflict | |
