Cadets
I noticed 3 things about these West Point Cadets;
1 - They're all in good shape. 2 - Some of them have breasts 3 - They're all too young to be sent out to die without a very goddamn good reason.

4) They seem to be receiving a visit from Doctor Who and a companion.

Well put, V.
Volunteers should not be wasted either. It appears they probably won't be going to Iraq when they graduate but the future is unwritten.

Wonder what the stats are for a Westpoint grad getting sent to the front are? IIRC you don't just get into WP. Someone has to be recommended by the powers that be.

mrnoodle, you have a good point, I'll concede that.
But it's not so good that it makes xoB's original point incorrect, or moot. His point is still true, and more important. These young people represent some of the very best that this country can produce, and I am proud of them and their accomplishments. But the human capital on display here, the vast raw potential they represent makes tragic at best, the prospect of their deaths in the most clear present danger to their lives--Iraq. More realistically, the likelihood that they'll be sent abroad, to Iraq, where their lives will be at far, far greater risk, is a profligate, shameful, prideful waste of precious human lives. A waste? Yeah, like lighting your cigar with a hundred dollar bill, cause you can. I think we agree on the value of their lives. What makes it tragic for me is the utter absence of anything resembling Quote:

Indeed. They volunteer to become a valuable resource for our country. One that shouldn't be wasted.
