"What a military they have now - 20 years ago when I had the misfortune to serve along them on a couple of theaters, it was already a disaster in terms of discipline, drug addiction, racial and gender search for "equality""

Armed forces reflect the society they come from - the ACTUAL society - not the one we hear about from politicians, movie makers and optimists. If there are problems with discipline, drug addiction etc then they are already prevalent in society - not much you can do about it TBH. But these you also get a wider view, people who can operate very high tech kit and not just blindly obey orders but show iniative, peopel who are aware of other cultures etc - swings and roundabouts
