Ah, this article really brings back memories.

Luckily, I wasn't harassed by no X-tian fundies -- but that group-
think peer pressure, often with the threat of violence, is never far

You only find out about these things after you sign up...it's like
renting an apartment in the big city: things look good on the surface,
but you just don't know how it'll work out except with time...and then
it's too late!

Being in the infantry is like being in a gang, I imagine...at its best
it's like being on a ball team with all your pals; at its worst it's
like being in some prison gang.
