Consider the Class A Felony convictions of enlisted folks versus officer
folks.


I really don't know what the percentages are on either side, but remember; 1.)
There are 3 enlisted personel for every officer in the USAF 2.) Many of the
felonys comitted by enlisted troops are done because of immaturity, not rank.
When I was 18 between February and May I got drunk three nights a week, when
Spring rolled around maybe more, the only reason I wasn't like that from
September through December was because I played football. Now take an 18 year
old crew chief, if he conducts himself in a similar manner he's going to run
into a lot of trouble that could turn into legal action.

Bottom line, an 18 year old who enlists in the military takes on an infinite
amount more responsibility then your average 18 year old and if he/she can
handle it, he/she usually winds up being one of the most trust worthy persons
in the country.
