I doubt the military is any different and the G.I. bill would seem like a major advantage to poorer people considering college.

For me this is not about what the Military uses to get people to join. I am personally of a generation that this deals with primarily. Dan even gave a site that dealt with 18-24, I am much closer to that age group than many are here (by what the individuals claim their age is). I went to school and work with people that used the military to get education funding. Many National Guard and Reserves members are former students that are in Iraq now!! But I guess someone will claim that statement is wrong. So be it, life goes on.
