I agree with your sentiments about the lost troops. But I disagree about gang members. Serving in the military is and should always be a honor, not a punishment. And I certainly don't want to arm a bunch of criminals. I would worry about any officer who had to lead armed murderers into combat. No discipline, no honor. If given an order, they will just a quickly kill the officer as carry out the order.
Serving is a privilege. |

I've always though it was a good place for us to empty out our prisons too, but good soldiers don't think so. They want to be deployed with professional soldiers, not dimwits who will get them all killed. |

Because they would worsen the problem.
This is not a hot war where enemy is obvious. Its complex power struggle.
that said, i bet some formet gang members are over there |

Gee-Gee

What an interesting thought, I think it would be difficult to do this since there is no control of gangs. But still a good idea.
As for will any of them be remembered, I truly hope so. I feel so sorry at the loss of all the lives, and what continues to bother me is these people are someones Mom or someones Dad, some little child will never see their parents again. I agree, God Bless them all. |

Becaue they lack DISCIPLINE, have NO value for human life and do what they do for THEM! Not a good combo for combat military.
Gang members would be a "loose canon" that would just inflame the civilians and put more pressure on the HONORABLE TROOPS" to clean up their mess.
Without their "homeys" they would probably go AWOL in the SH** and attempt to start a drug trade.
It has been almost 40 years and I still think about those lost in NAM on a daily basis. NOT a stereotypical NAM VET, but I salute them EVERY DAY.

Gang members can't get along with anyone, that's why they're in a gang in the first place so they can kill one another for looking at them the wrong way. They'd be horrible soldiers because their egos would prevent them from dealing with the politics of being in the military. |

No, many of the gang members probably wouldn't listen to orders here anyway. Besides, I'd rather them stay at home, in case we need them at home. Unless they do something about our border situation, I'm afraid eventually we'll have to depend on them. |

You know, I've asked a similar question. Why can't we send convicted felons? Shave some time off your sentence, serve some time in the military. Give something back to the Country that you live in. Heck, send the murderers and child abusers over there since most of them seem to have anger management problems anyway. |

Yep, the guys on death row (or life in prison), and the gangs could probably do some good over there. |

Hate to burst your bubble, but a large percentage of the Latino and black military members are all bangers and use the miitary to get trained for combat. |
