I would hardly call myself a prime example.  There are plenty of people
smarter than I around both within and without the military.

Congratulations.  I hope that you enjoy the freedom to do that.  BTW,
that is precisely the reason why I am still in the military.  So that
people can *choose* to join or not join and enjoy their freedom either
way.

I see.  So by bragging about not enlisting in the military you are
saying that you lack the desire do defend others' freedoms with your
life?  I'm sorry to hear that.  It is a most rewarding feeling.
