      What about people who just work in the military supply chain and stuff? I almost signed up because I figured if I don't do the job then someone else will, and that someone else might have plans to progress up the military ranks.

      Also, what about the kids who are blatantly indoctrinated?

          Here's a massive difference between being a cop and being a troop:

          Want to quit your job as a cop because it's not what you thought it would be? Cool. Give your notice and quit.

          Want to quit the Army because it's not what you thought it would be? Tough titties, finish out your 6 years, either working for the Army or sitting in a prison.

          I'm not saying that the troops are good, or that most aren't bad, but it's an entirely different thing from being a cop.
