Mailings views i am writing this letter in response to the article in the stars and stripes entitled hotlines Renews fight for military after Reading this article i fell i Musi take Issue with some of the statements atari Butch to sen. Holling. The senator is quoted As saying among other things that the Volunteer military is drawn from the lower classes. The undereducated and the disadvantaged. He also stated that the . Military is not and More voluntary than a Job at the Corner Gas station or Mcdonald s. And that for thousands of undereducated unskilled unemployed Young people the military is the employer of last resort. Well 1 hate to burst your Bubble senator but i am not lower class undereducated or disadvantaged nor Are the vast majority of personnel i be encountered during my 10 years of service. Also in my Case the military was nol the last Choice of an unskilled unemployed loser but my first Choice for a career 1 feel if sen. Holling were to Check his facts before making his prejudicial and misleading statements he would Sec that today army is belter educated better motivated and More professional than at any time Dur ing the draft. As someone who has chosen the military As a career i have no desire to Start working Wilh training with or go into Battle with a Bunch or people who have no desire to Terve and Are Only there because they Are being forced to. The concepts of Panr Louism and desire to serve your country an things that come from deep inside each of us. They Are not things that can be forced into someone by an obligatory term of service. Concerning your feelings that the upper class is avoiding service in the military if my memory serves me correctly nol Many upper class Boyi fought m Vietnam they were in school. The draft did t seem to affect them then so Why should it work now. Wake up senator. Instead of trying to Force people to join up who Don l Wunt to Why does t Congress try improving the benefits and Quality of life for the volunteers who serve their country willingly i Sicad of constantly trying to Cut Ihm sol William t. Clarkson Glebe Ludt Germany editor s note is. Sen Ernest f. I lolling. , replies some of your readers lure misconstrued my position and the reasons Why i believe we will need a draft for our armed forces in the near future i would like to add a few remarks to clarify my views. I believe we have the finest group of enlisted person Nel Hal we probably have Ever Nad in our armed forces. I just returned from a visit to Many is. Installations in Europe and Asia and saw first hand dedicated and top Rale troops America s Security is everybody s business whatever economic and educational level or racial background they represent. We will never be Able to obtain tie commitment of the american Public when on troops must face an adversary unless every segment of american society has a stake to ii. Freedom and Security do not come cheap and we must fare up to this tact these an the Foremost reasons Why i believe a draft is needed. There Are some simple facts thai Dod has also raised. By the mid-1990s, the Pool of eligible per sons to be recruited Lulu the aimed forces will be significantly diminished from the 1980 level by perhaps 25 percent this will require Large increases to bonuses and Basic pay to meet recruiting Levels. Wilh the budget deficits facing us the funds will nol be available to achieve the goals. A second Dod statistic indicates that minorities in our society comprise Over 30 percent of recruits and up to 40 to 50 percent of combat troops. The Point it not whether these groups Are the greatest soldiers or not ii got Back to the Basic premise defense is every citizen s responsibility. It should not be an unequally shared task. Sgt. Worried about speeders on caverns 1 have been stationed in the Hanau military Community for five months now and i am appalled Ai the total disrespect for posted Speed limits on the caverns Here and in the Frankfurt area. I have yet to see an my actually enforcing these Speed limits the results of which Are people in tactical Dod and privately owned vehicles both american and German speeding excessively on poor Quality roads. Why Are the maps not aggressively patrolling Here with radars As they did on stateside posts arc radars illegal Here if so Why not use the automatic devices of the germans thus leaving the maps to perform their present duties Are there fines Here Are citations of germans enforceable i have already seen two near Accident in which a pedestrian was almost bit by a speeder. Action needs to be taken to slow Down these dangerous speeders on our caverns. Sgt John e. Cosset Hanan Germany editor s note col Alfonso e. Lenhardt pro Vost marshal he v gods replies tie writer s concern about speeding is shared by All affected. Be assured that the safety and Well being of soldiers family members and civilians is a Lap priority for Community Jinn Osl marshals throughout v corps. Enforcing Frame regulations 1dch As stoning Speed of orators is an or Tegl put of the Overall command safety programs which an alive and Well in the communities. Speed measuring devices radar Are Legal in Ger Many. The military police actively conduct radar operations throughout v corps communities. There is a Pri Mary focus on patrolling the . Housing areas where Large number of Chi Drra Are playing. To further prevent Speed violations Many installation commanders have also erected Security barriers on tie installations caverns As additional Speed control de vices. Speed violators soldiers Del Laiu local nationals Are issued us. Forces traffic tickets. Additionally the offender s Chain of command is automatically Noti fied of the violation. This is another effective control measure. One other measure that works Well is the personal involvement of Community members such As the writer. Reports of i Seafe Toffic conditions in military housing areas Are greatly appreciated by the military police and will a quickly responded to. Reducing the hazards of traffic violations Cali aids to be a top priority for Community Provost marshals. Pen pass pm 90 Yun do. I Tunny.
