Thinking about troops today- just about the same break-down as during Vietnam in terms of POC and lower economic classes as well as age. Many POC and people that just have no way to get an education or good job training join the military and do right out of high school.

When I first posted that list; I felt Colin Powell should have been there. He bailed out of the Bush admin and I admire him for that and for many other things.
