Not a good idea but then again, women are taking on bigger roles too.  So...

Now, Spinner, you never served (clearly) so, what do you blame for screwing up your life?

I would have loved that.  Test out of high school and go to the military.  GI bill and Army college fun, veteran benefit, real world experience all before 19 years of age would equals stellar individual that is extremely employable and a contributing member to society unlike most at that age.

I guess it would have to depend on the MOS for me to agree that somebody that young should be doing it.

First year I collected my GI bill and army college for education I made just a touch over $100,000 in my IBEW apprenticeship.   Most apprentices anymore are veterans only as you know you can get employable people if they are a veteran.  If I could have been out by 19 years old after 3 years.....  damn sign me up!!!!  Plus I get veteran discounts everywhere.

You know what's funny? Now that I am a business owner and making 10x what I did when I was working for other companies I get a TON of shit for free. Lunches, golf, I can get tickets to any game in town (except playoffs and such), concerts and even vacations. I'll be going to Cabo again this fall with my wife and it won't cost us anything. Crazy.

That is very cool!   Good to take advantage of the fruits of your labor.

Having trouble finding kids dumb enough to fight in these senseless wars? What about illegals? :lol:

Kids today are smarter about that stuff. The end of this generational rah rah bullshit and phony dying for your country is here.

You sound like you are overcompensating for something here.  How pathetic.

Poser.

All that a thinking person needs to do is sit down and skim over the pentagon papers. They’d realize that there ain’t nothing honest about any person that supposedly died for their country since some died in WWII. And even some of that war is funky as shit. It’s all bullshit today.

Ahh yes, the “enlightened self righteous” reason for never serving.  A lot of old men that have never done anything worthy use this.

:lol:
