I want to begin by saying I'm not pointing fingers... But I'm completely confused here... First the discussion starts about how 17 & 18 year old children are to young and immature to handle military service... So instead thoughts are being raised that at this age these Children should be allowed to not only be young & immature but now intoxicated! This makes no sense at all.
Honestly there are even some 21 year olds who shouldn't be allowed to drink...even 30, 40, 50 & older. The real reason the 21 year restriction is in place is because the human brain & other body functions have not fully developed until this age...
So although at 18 the state & country views you as an adult..your body doesn't.
