One of my best friends in the world is in Afghanistan right now. I know for a fact that he would make an outstanding public school music teacher (he and I were in the drum corps together). Another friend of mine, who I think is in Germany, would be an honest and hard working foreman in construction.
If we could reallocate some of the funds from the defense budget into education or infrastructure, we could create the very jobs returning troops would need to support themselves and their families.
