Our Increasingly Isolated Military Culture
RantingProfs has a very interesting post up on the increasing isolation of our military culture from mainstream America.
I've read somewhere that, back in the 30's or so, almost every boy could read and interpret the service ribbons worn by military personnel. That's astonishing to consider. Now, with a all-volunteer services, most of us don't have any contact whatsoever with military life. This in no small part drives the current conflict between the media and the military, not to mention the public's general misunderstanding of the problems our armed services face in doing their job.
