With all due respect soldier: Soldiers do not enlist in the military, civilians enlist in the military and the military trains them to be soldiers (OOH RAH!) I like to think our draftees did a mighty fine job in WWI, WWII, Korea, and Viet Nam. Irregardless of being drafted or enlisting, there will always be sub par soldiers that ain't worth the spit in the bottom of the canteen. Many countries have this mandatory service and it works flawlessly. I don't care one way or another about it, but don't believe it is fair to stereotype all draftees as inferior soldiers. Knowing you're a soldier I have zero doubt that you did not intend for me or anyone else to take it that way, but you know how things get skewed on the interwebs.
