#2 Geographically speaking, the military attracts a proportionally larger percentage of recruits from southern states while youth of northeastern states are underrepresented.

Lincoln made the same discovery a few years back.

#4 "Ivy League Universities"

Interestingly enough, when my son enlisted in the Navy, there were a sizeable group of college grads with worthless degrees that shipped out with him.

I spoke with a few of them, both guys and gals, and many had a useless degree, high student debt, and a decided lack of job prospects.

They were thrilled the Navy was taking them. Too bad the Ivies aren't going too. It would do them good.
