I would have to say NO, although it's not because a military man might get sent into combat. I am, to put it mildly, a bleeding-heart liberal and my views on almost everything tend to be VERY left of center. I really doubt that I would ever meet someone in the military whose beliefs are at all close to mine, and I tend to prefer to have deep and meaningful relationships with people who have views at least somewhat similar to mine. I also am opposed to war in most instances, and would have a hard time being with someone who was fighting in a war that I thought was unjust. I also wouldn't want to have to move to wherever and live at/near a military base; environment is very important to me, and as such I like to decide where I will be, or at least contribute to that decision.
As kind of a hippie at heart, I don't think I would relate all that well to those in the military, although I am sure there are exceptions. I'm more prone to hang out with artsy, liberal, left wing people.
