And they are not just idiots...

From the Asia Times :

"Questionable Pentagon methods of recruitment are resulting in "US ground forces increasingly made up of a motley mix of under-age teens, old-timers, foreign fighters, gang-bangers, neo-Nazis, ex-cons, inferior officers and a host of near-mercenary troops, lured in or kept in uniform through big payouts and promises". "
