I am still trying to figure out where everyone gets this idea that those of us in the military are poor and liberal. When we received our absentee ballots last month, of about 100 soldiers in my company, maybe five voted democrat. And in the 12 years that I have been in the military, over 80% of those I served with were republican. And a lot of us are not poor. There are a lot of soldiers these days who come from middle class or even upper class families who chose to serve because of patriotism. Yeah the lure of money for enlisting as well as money for college makes the military an attractive option, but overall a lot of the soldiers that I talk to joined for patriotic reasons.
