My point, quickly, was that I didn't mean to imply that soldiers were dumb. Just that they were about on the same intellectual as most folks that age, including, if we're honest, college students. I'm not especially proud of my taste in books and movies at age 21, but, with experience, it got more sophisticated. Which is why I'm not surprised that these guys want Maxim and dumb action flicks, and would probably look at novels and dramas as "boring." Not a judgment, just an observation.
Crap. LJ ate my original response.
