Husband did 4 years back in the 80's. Both of us have fathers who are retired Vets - one a retired full bird, at that. None of us, not even the Repukeish bird, would want the kidlet (14 years old) to consider joining up for the military until the idiocy is over.
We'd figure out something else for her to do for her country other than joining the "PNAC youth corps" if she wanted to serve. And not just "winning the war on minds" like the current crop of privileged college pukes do; something that could really make a difference - first responder, ecology, teaching, social work, etc.
