I have already referenced my proof. Just because you do not accept it does not mean that it is not true. You are the one claiming that it is false, show me why it is false. Do not just say, "that is not true," and expect me to agree with you.

We have been down this road before, you and I. So if you are saying that over 50 percent of the todays Military did not use the G.I. Bill or any governement program to get an education, show me the statistic and I will say that you are right and we will end this conversation.

Peace
No, that's not what I'm saying, and believe it or not it is not what you said originally. You said "Most of the people in the military now are there to go to school, not go to war.... I'll agree that no one wants to go to war (well...99% anyway). I would hope that 100% of service people take advantage of every single benefit the government offers during their time in service & when they are done. But there's quite a difference between "people join the military to get money for college" and "people eligible for military benefits tend to use them".

And no, you never answered Chuck's question.
