   The question is: how can [putting only appropriate people into
   [combat] be done?
   
   
   Simple, take all the murderers in the country and put them in uniform.
   The major qualification to being in the armed forces is the ready
   willingness and ablility to murder somebody on command.


With philosophy like this, we might as well all be dead.  There's
nothing I would like better than having some confirmed psycopath have
access to any weapon system he would like, as well as having the
potential of him having control over other men.  "Gee guys, lets go over
to that judge who convicted me, and give him a good time.  Is that okay
with you, Sir?"  "Sure, he put me here too."

And let's not mention nuclear warfare.  This country's military forces
needs all the same people it can to keep us from blowing ourselves up.

Please excuse me for continuing Mr. Kolodney's clutter of this
newsgroup.
