What sacrifice would that be? Only like 0.00001% of the military enlisted for patriotic reasons.
Sounds like someone who is cynical AND never served.

I enlisted in 1969.
I wasn't drafted, in danger of going to jail, or forced in any way.
I didn't know what I'd be doing or where I'd serve (most folks went to Vietnam).
And at a private's basic pay of $77/month......I can truly say that I didn't do it for the money.

Gee, I must be one luck guy because I met other people in the same situation....what are the odds of that happening?

(0.00001 x 0.00001 x 0.00001 x 0.00001 x 0.00001 x ect......) I think I can call bullshit on this quote.
