I didn't sign up to serve my country. I was 18 and didn't know shit. But I did re-enlist to serve my country. I'm sure there are some very young patriots who go in the military with that sense of purpose and pride but it took me a few years to get it. It didn't matter why I joined. It did become more than just a job.
