When you have an unjust and unpopular war, those old recruiting standards hit the skids. "You graduated 6th grade? You're officer material, Jethro." "We don't say 'Sieg Heil' in formation, Hilter. But in the barracks it's don't ask, don't tell." The Hilter reference is to a great old Monty Python skit where Hitler and his top guys set up shop in an English boarding house. He isn't Hitler in England. He's Hilter. John Cleese, of course, played Hilter.
