#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. |

#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. |
