Of course, those throwing around stereotypes rarely understand that that is what they're doing.
I guess no soldiers have ever decided to serve because college wasn't an option for them. I must have just made that up in my head. My bad.
Except that I've literally heard multiple people say that they joined the army because they couldn't make it into a university. One kid told me it was either the Army or a factory and he didn't want to be working in a factory the rest of his life. I'm sure he's very honored to serve his country by default.
Do all soldiers think like this? No. Most probably don't. But to deny that none of our soldiers think this way is a bit ludicrous.
Well, it's a good thing I didn't say that, then!
