I'm the only member of my family who *hasn't* been in the army.
I don't take well to people shouting at me. Depending on my state of mind, I either start crying or shout back.

I would have been happy to do something less military when I was a student, though.

Ask a soldier. Professional soldiers want to soldier, not babysit a bunch of lary chavs that aren't interested.

Having said that, we need some cannon fodder, and a lot of the colonies have been getting terribly uppity recently.
