I think it is a start. The more military friendly representatives we have the better. I think the younger vets will offer insight that is not presently there.

For whatever reason, I find this vaguely reassuring. Regardless of their politics, I find the fact that they were willing to serve before "public service" a hopeful sign. Maybe "serve" means to them what it means to me.

Then again, I can think of a lot of jerks that served before being elected who remained jerks.... I'm still more fond of veteran jerks.

SGM (Join to see) I think one of the real problems is that the percentage is decreasing. http://www.moaa.org/Main_Menu/Take_Action/Top_Issues/Serving_in_Uniform/Compensation/Fewer_Vets_on_the_Hill.html

Maybe we can still get the new congress to do something useful, like Arm the "Armed Forces.
