Alright so I'm currently in the armed forces, and I'm a strong believer that a military background is a good foundation to being a "well-rounded" individual. A lot of big corporations feel the same way, too. Military service always looks good on a resume (especially as an officer).

However, I feel like being "voluntold" to be in the military isn't the best idea. Those who want to be in the military are the ones we want there. I wouldn't want my life to be in the hands of someone who didn't really want to be there. That's just my 2 cents though. I could go on for much longer, but isn't brevity a virtue?
