If you have a son and, in a testosterone-laden moment, he gets on line and “requests an information brochure” from one of the services, then the flood gates open and he will get all manner of glossies and maybe even calls. It’s like those trailers you see before the movies, all heroism and honor and “being all that you can be” while leaving out the part about the body bags and PTSD. Parents of boys in particular should be on the look-out for the military hard-sell, unless of course they encourage it.
