It would help if you would post your numbers to back up your concerns, then we could know if there is a reason to share your concerns with you, or just ignore you.

In my posts I have tried to note this but it’s not getting through:

I HAVE NO DATA and I was hoping you would provide it to dissuade me from my IMPRESSIONS derived from reading various articles here and there about the U.S. military. It “seems” to me that the enlisted ranks, especially insofar as the combat troops are concerned, are largely made up of young men (18 to maybe 23, 24 years) with high school diplomas, and I was simply pointing out that with the draft these enlisted men would have a larger component of older men with college degrees and their presence would be a plus for the military.

Of course, I recognize that the officer corps is comprised of these older men, almost all of whom have college degrees.

To repeat: I have no data but would like to see what is available.
