I can only comment as someone who has never served in the military. I am however forever grateful for those who do. From my point of view, they should be allowed in as well, if they are "up to the task". in other words, with them just as with any other demographic, there will be those who are not up to the task, and don't belong in the services for what ever reason. But kudos to them for giving it a try anyway.
Especially in a time when recruiters are not meeting quotas, service men and woman are being called into service when they otherwise thought they might not be. If someone is willing to serve their country, I think they should be given a chance.
Al, just wondering if your point of view comes from someone who has or hasn't served in the military ?
God Bless our troops and I hope and pray for their safe return.
