the pay isn't that bad anymore actually . . . especially for officers.

If we paid our military men and women better, I don't think we would have to even think of drafting people.


We have a community service hour requirement at my high school as well, but it is 100 hours over the course of 4 years. While it's good, it's no where near the amount of hours that I would like to see performed. This a completely different subject, though, for another thread...
