My DH and I are neither one military. We have lots of family members (uncles, grandfathers, etc.) who served and have always been very supportive and thankful of the military. Our two oldest DS are both considering military service. The youngest of the two will enter 9th grade this fall and loves the water, fishing, etc. He is very regimented in establishing routines, keeping things orderly, so I've always thought of the two he is probably already more of a fit for the military, but last night at dinner, my DH said, "Well, I'm not sure he has the personality for the military." That got me thinking, is there a "personality type" for military service? I have personally always thought that anyone willing to sign up to sacrifice for our great country can be molded into the kind of person that fits the needs of the military. What are your thoughts?
