My comment: "If this poll is true, it's a sad day in America"
72 percent of those asked would not be willing to volunteer to serve in the armed forces were America to enter a major conflict, compared with 21 percent who would.

Sad but not entirely surprising. When I was in high school in the 60s I'd guess that the percentages were about the same,if not worse, but there was an active draft to make up for it. If the services continue to not make quotas I could certainly see the draft becoming active again.

From the article:
"I was in the military before 9/11; a lot of society didn't really think about the military very much [before then].""
Ain't that the truth!
