So far as I'm concerned thats as it should be. Remember, this government was created initially to make all male citizens members of the militia subject to call up in times of need. So essentially everyone was military, national guard at least. Everyone was supposed to be impacted by a war, that way you wouldn't fight in needless wars.
Hell we weren't even supposed to have a standing army.
