    In the national guard? Their recruiting ads are more like swinging under a helicopter saving someone from a river. Or digging through rubble after a tornado. They’re not exactly the same kind of people. Think of the headspace being more like that of a volunteer firefighter. Yeah, they were dumb to think that’d be reality after the last 25 years, but that’s where their head likely was.
