Military sadly mirrors broader population demographics.
My kid was real surprised to learn about half of his USCG Academy class was left of center during the course of gov’t, history and economics classes in the late 2000 period.
He observed women cadets were more inclined to be liberal.
I’ve even attended gun range training with a youngish marine who was as left as could be.
Sincerely grateful for FR and critical thinkers here -
Its an uphill battle for the republic out there...
It’s getting to the point that my thinking is in critical condition. :>} Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
In my 22 years in uniform I met a few, but they are still rare... After 9/11 that rarity went much further to obscurity.
Anyone who makes a career of the military usually wind up conservative or libertarian. Very, very few professed democrats among the career force.
