>>Only 18... sigh... Congrats, you are now military and voter eligible but can't legally consume adult beverages in most States. :)

>Just out of curiosity, I'm not a big advocate of alcohol consumption, :-) but doesn't it seem contradictory that it's acceptable to send a young man into battle possibly to die, but not give the privilege of drinking. Or conversely, if he is too young to drink, is he too young to go into battle? Until the voting age was moved down to 18, it seemed the same with it.
When I was in the Army in the mid-80's, eighteen-year-old soldiers could by liquor on-post. Off-post, state laws applied. Dunno if that's changed.
