Were it that simple eh. Gee, I served for 30 years and not once did I get "elected" to the service.
Fortunately, the military does not serve at "the whim of the people". It does serve at the whim of Congress (funding) and the President (Commander in Chief). In fact, I do not recall anywhere in the US Constitution where it says the military shall serve at the whim of the people.... Maybe in your country they do; are you from France?
And the congress and the president serve at the whim of the people. doh!
