I’m of two minds with regard to military recruiting. I know they seem to focus on low-income minorities and drip promises of job skills. What’s the most likely assignment? Infantry. Tanks. Artillery. Missiles.

Where are you going to use that after you get out?

On the other hand, despite my vociferous disagreement, # went into the US Navy, got some useful technical training, and has been able to add some post-military education (the GI Bill paid for part of it) and is currently the only one with a stable-ish income.
