You may be right. My perspective on people who joined the military is based more on who joined when I was college age/graduating from high school. At that time (early to mid 80's) there was no threat of war, no thought of war, we had never experienced a war and didn't really expect to. We were too young to remember Vietnam and our biggest scare was Libya. Most of those I knew who were joining were doing ROTC and had to do 4 years after college, but were doing it as a means to go to college, rather than to defend our country. The Gulf War and 9/11 have changed things a bit.
