What an asshole.I currently work near an overseas military base and have many military people as neighbors in my building. I get paid to work overseas and to travel, as they do. However, they are the elite in the services. Your average GI in the military is blue collar and not bright enough to have gone to university, earned an advanced degree and have an officer's position in the military. I grew up in the working class. I knew a whole slew of boys in my high school who graduated and went into the military because they didn't have the wherewithal to go to college or get vocational training on their own. The military was their best bet. The majority of the military are like that: it's a pyramid structure with those at the bottom doing all the dirty work.
I grew up in the military and served four years myself. Also have a university degree. Being in college or being an officer is not an indicator of intellect. They are disproportionately represented by people like you, smug and quite full of themselves, looking down others as their lessers.
