We've had a couple of guys enlist in the Army and one Marine in two years I've lived there. I'm damn proud of them (especially the Marine - man has he changed). Now these kids weren't mission types, so missions and active duty military seem to be an either/or proposition, which frankly is understandable IMO. I do know alot of RM's however, that joined the National Guard once released.
